This article describes the internal effects of the various COM security settings. For easier orientation, the behavior with the default settings is in bold.
QuickOPC version 2022.1 and later
Parameters from ComManagement.Instance.Configuration.SecurityParameters are used for COM security initialization.
Parameters from ComManagement.Instance.Configuration.InstantiationParameters, possibly overridden by values from EasyXXClient.SharedParameters.MachineParameters.ComInstantiationParameters, are used for instantiation of OPCEnum object.
Parameters from ComManagement.Instance.Configuration.InstantiationParameters, possibly overridden by values from EasyXXClient.SharedParameters.ClientParameters.ComInstantiationParameters, are used for instantiations of target OPC servers.
COM and proxy initialization
- Without UseCustomSecurity: CoInitializeSecurity is not called. IClientSecurity::SetBlanket (or CoSetProxyBlanket) is not called.
- With UseCustomSecurity (the default): CoInitializeSecurity is called. IClientSecurity::SetBlanket (or CoSetProxyBlanket) is called (only in NativeClient).
CoInitializeSecurity parameters
In many cases, the COM security will be initialized before we get a chance to call CoInitializeSecurity. In such cases, the call to CoInitializeSecurity will fail silently.
pSecDesc = NULL.
- Without AllowImpersonateClient (the default): dwImpLevel = RPC_C_IMP_LEVEL_IDENTIFY (2).
- With AllowImpersonateClient: dwImpLevel = RPC_C_IMP_LEVEL_IMPERSONATE (3).
- Without TurnOffCallSecurity (the default): dwAuthnLevel = common authentication level (see below).
- With TurnOffCallSecurity: dwAuthnLevel = RPC_C_AUTHN_LEVEL_NONE (1).[1]
AccessFromThreadToken is ignored.
IClientSecurity::SetBlanket (or CoSetProxyBlanket) parameters
dwAuthnLevel and dwImpLevel are the same as those used with CoInitializeSecurity.
COAUTHINFO* pAuthInfo in COSERVERINFO* passed to CoCreateInstanceEx (when machine name is not empty)
- Without OverrideDefaultSecurity: NULL.
- With OverrideDefaultSecurity (the default):
- Without TurnOffActivationSecurity (the default): dwAuthnSvc = RPC_C_AUTHN_WINNT; dwAuthzSvc = RPC_C_AUTHZ_NONE; pwszServerPrincName = NULL; dwAuthnLevel = common authentication level (see below); dwImpersonationLevel = RPC_C_IMP_LEVEL_IMPERSONATE; pAuthIdentityData = NULL; dwCapabilities = EOAC_NONE.
- With TurnOffActivationSecurity: dwAuthnSvc = RPC_C_AUTHN_NONE; dwAuthzSvc = RPC_C_AUTHZ_NONE; pwszServerPrincName = NULL; dwAuthnLevel = RPC_C_AUTHN_LEVEL_NONE; dwImpersonationLevel = RPC_C_IMP_LEVEL_IMPERSONATE; pAuthIdentityData = NULL; dwCapabilities = EOAC_NONE.[2][3]
Common authentication level
- Without EnsureDataIntegrity (the default): RPC_C_AUTHN_LEVEL_CONNECT (2).
- With EnsureDataIntegrity: RPC_C_AUTHN_LEVEL_PKT_INTEGRITY (5).[4]
QuickOPC versions up to 2021.3
The information only applies to NativeClient implementation. The NetApiClient implementation uses different settings, and they cannot be changed by the parameters described here.
For operations on OPCEnum, parameters from EasyXXClient.SharedParameters.MachineParameters are used. For operations on target OPC servers, parameters from EasyXXClient.SharedParameters.ClientParameters are used.
COM and proxy initialization
CoInitializeSecurity is not called.
- Without UseCustomSecurity: IClientSecurity::SetBlanket (or CoSetProxyBlanket) is not called.
- With UseCustomSecurity (the default): IClientSecurity::SetBlanket (or CoSetProxyBlanket) is called.
IClientSecurity::SetBlanket (or CoSetProxyBlanket) parameters
- Without TurnOffCallSecurity (the default): dwAuthnLevel = Always RPC_C_AUTHN_LEVEL_CONNECT (2); dwImpLevel = RPC_C_IMP_LEVEL_IMPERSONATE (3).
- With TurnOffCallSecurity: dwAuthnLevel = RPC_C_AUTHN_LEVEL_NONE (1); dwImpLevel = RPC_C_IMP_LEVEL_IMPERSONATE (3).[1]
COAUTHINFO* pAuthInfo in COSERVERINFO* passed to CoCreateInstanceEx (when machine name is not empty)
- Without TurnOffActivationSecurity (the default): NULL.
- With TurnOffActivationSecurity: dwAuthnSvc = RPC_C_AUTHN_NONE; dwAuthzSvc = RPC_C_AUTHZ_NONE; pwszServerPrincName = NULL; dwAuthnLevel = RPC_C_AUTHN_LEVEL_NONE; dwImpersonationLevel = RPC_C_IMP_LEVEL_IMPERSONATE; pAuthIdentityData = NULL; dwCapabilities = EOAC_NONE.[2].
- ↑ 1.0 1.1 See Turning Off Call Security. For this to work, the server must also specify None for its authentication level.
- ↑ 2.0 2.1 See Turning Off Activation Security. For this to work, the server must specify Everyone for Default Launch Permissions.
- ↑ Due to the fact that the effective parameters are determined by taking ComManagement.Instance.Configuration.InstantiationParameters and possibly overriding them by values from EasyXXClient.SharedParameters.MachineParameters.ComInstantationParameters or EasyXXClient.SharedParameters.ClientParameters.ComInstantationParameters, you need to set TurnOffActivationSecurity at multiple places.
- ↑ For KB5004442—Manage changes for Windows DCOM Server Security Feature Bypass (CVE-2021-26414).
