DuplicateTokenEx
[New - Windows NT]
The DuplicateTokenEx function creates a new access token that duplicates an existing token. This
function can create either a primary token or an impersonation token.
BOOL DuplicateTokenEx(
HANDLE hExistingToken,
| // handle to token to duplicate
| DWORD dwDesiredAccess,
| // access rights of new token
| LPSECURITY_ATTRIBUTES lpTokenAttributes,
| // security attributes of the new token
| SECURITY_IMPERSONATION_LEVEL ImpersonationLevel,
| // impersonation level of new token
| TOKEN_TYPE TokenType,
| // primary or impersonation token
| PHANDLE phNewToken
| // handle to duplicated token
| );
|
|
Parameters
hExistingToken
Identifies an access token opened with TOKEN_DUPLICATE access.
dwDesiredAccess
Specifies the requested access rights for the new token. The DuplicateTokenEx function compares the requested access rights with the existing token's
discretionary access-control list (ACL) to determine which rights are granted or
denied. To request the same access rights as the existing token, specify zero. To
request all access rights that are valid for the caller, specify
MAXIMUM_ALLOWED. Otherwise, specify a combination of the following access rights.
Value
| Meaning
| TOKEN_ADJUST_DEFAULT
| Required to change the default ACL, primary group, or owner of an access token.
| TOKEN_ADJUST_GROUPS
| Required to change the groups specified in an access token.
| TOKEN_ADJUST_PRIVILEGES
| Required to change the privileges specified in an access token.
| TOKEN_ALL_ACCESS
| Combines the STANDARD_RIGHTS_REQUIRED standard access rights and all
individual access rights for tokens.
| TOKEN_ASSIGN_PRIMARY
| Required to attach a primary token to a process in addition to the
SE_CREATE_TOKEN_NAME privilege.
| TOKEN_DUPLICATE
| Required to duplicate an access token.
| TOKEN_EXECUTE
| Combines the STANDARD_RIGHTS_EXECUTE standard access rights and the
TOKEN_IMPERSONATE access right.
| TOKEN_IMPERSONATE
| Required to attach an impersonation access token to a process.
| TOKEN_QUERY
| Required to query the contents of an access token.
| TOKEN_QUERY_SOURCE
| Required to query the source of an access token.
| TOKEN_READ
| Combines the STANDARD_RIGHTS_READ standard access rights and the TOKEN_QUERY
access right.
| TOKEN_WRITE
| Combines the STANDARD_RIGHTS_WRITE standard access rights and the
TOKEN_ADJUST_PRIVILEGES, TOKEN_ADJUST_GROUPS, and TOKEN_ADJUST_DEFAULT access rights.
|
lpTokenAttributes
Pointer to a SECURITY_ATTRIBUTES structure that specifies a security descriptor for the new token and
determines whether child processes can inherit the token. If lpTokenAttributes is NULL, the token gets a default security descriptor and the handle cannot
be inherited.
ImpersonationLevel
Specifies a value from the SECURITY_IMPERSONATION_LEVEL enumeration that indicates the impersonation level of the new token.
TokenType
Specifies one of the following values from the TOKEN_TYPE enumeration.
Value
| Meaning
| TokenPrimary
| The new token is a primary token that you can use in the CreateProcessAsUser function.
| TokenImpersonation
| The new token is an impersonation token.
|
phNewToken
Pointer to a HANDLE variable that receives the new token.
Return Values
If the function succeeds, the return value is a nonzero value.
If the function fails, the return value is zero. To get extended error
information, call GetLastError.
Remarks
The DuplicateTokenEx function allows you to create a primary token that you can use in the CreateProcessAsUser function. This allows a server application that is impersonating a client to
create a process that has the security context of the client. Note that the DuplicateToken function can create only impersonation tokens, which are not valid for CreateProcessAsUser.
The following is a typical scenario for using DuplicateTokenEx to create a primary token. A server application creates a thread that calls
one of the impersonation functions, such as ImpersonateNamedPipeClient, to impersonate a client. The impersonating thread then calls the OpenThreadToken function to get its own token, which is an impersonation token that has the security context of the client. The thread specifies this
impersonation token in a call to DuplicateTokenEx, specifying the TokenPrimary flag. DuplicateTokenEx creates a primary token that has the security context of the client.
When you have finished using the new token, call the CloseHandle function to close the token handle.

Nostalgia .Net |

.Net is powerful, but not all-powerful, so sometimes we need to use Win32 API for our .Net applications. It's simple enough with Platform Invoke if you have Win32 skill, but we do not always have time to dig the ancient documentation, declare the special types that are compatible with Win32, find the values of the Win32's constants and so on. Nostalgia .Net offers several simple-to-use classes, and components that will allow you to forget about the headache of Win32 and just use the power of Win32 in your application the same way as you use the native. Net classes. More » |
