FLT_PARAMETERS for IRP_MJ_QUERY_SECURITY union
Union component used when the MajorFunction field of the FLT_IO_PARAMETER_BLOCK structure for the operation is IRP_MJ_QUERY_SECURITY.
Syntax
typedef union _FLT_PARAMETERS {
... ;
struct {
SECURITY_INFORMATION SecurityInformation;
ULONG POINTER_ALIGNMENT Length;
PVOID SecurityBuffer;
PDML MdlAddress;
} QuerySecurity;
... ;
} FLT_PARAMETERS, *PFLT_PARAMETERS;
Members
QuerySecurity: Structure containing the following members.
SecurityInformation: Pointer to a caller-supplied SECURITY_INFORMATION value that specifies the security information to be queried. One of the following:
SecurityInformation Value Meaning OWNER_SECURITY_INFORMATION The owner identifier of the object is being queried. Requires READ_CONTROL access. GROUP_SECURITY_INFORMATION The primary group identifier of the object is being queried. Requires READ_CONTROL access. DACL_SECURITY_INFORMATION The discretionary access control list (DACL) of the object is being queried. Requires READ_CONTROL access. SACL_SECURITY_INFORMATION The system ACL (SACL) of the object is being queried. Requires ACCESS_SYSTEM_SECURITY access. Length: Length, in bytes, of the buffer that SecurityBuffer points to.
SecurityBuffer: Pointer to a caller-supplied output buffer that receives a copy of the security descriptor of the specified object. The calling process must have the right to view the specified aspects of the object's security status. The SECURITY_DESCRIPTOR structure is returned in self-relative format. This member is optional and can be NULL if a MDL is provided in MdlAddress. See Remarks.
MdlAddress: Address of a memory descriptor list (MDL) that describes the buffer that SecurityBuffer points to. This member is optional and can be NULL if a buffer is provided in SecurityBuffer. See Remarks.
Remarks
The FLT_PARAMETERS structure for IRP_MJ_QUERY_SECURITY operations contains the parameters for an IRP-based query-security-information operation represented by a callback data (FLT_CALLBACK_DATA) structure. It is contained in an FLT_IO_PARAMETER_BLOCK structure.
If both a SecurityBuffer and MdlAddress buffer are provided, it is recommended that minifilters use the MDL. The memory that SecurityBuffer points to is valid when it is a user mode address being accessed within the context of the calling process, or if it is a kernel mode address.
If a minifilter changes the value of MdlAddress, then after its post operation callback, Filter Manager will free the MDL currently stored in MdlAddress and restore the previous value of MdlAddress.
On Windows XP and later, the object that the TargetFileObject member of the FLT_IO_PARAMETER_BLOCK structure points to can represent a named data stream. For more information about named data streams, see FILE_STREAM_INFORMATION.
IRP_MJ_QUERY_SECURITY is an IRP-based operation.
