[Bug 1117723] Re: USER_getGroupsQuery and USER_getRolesQuery give back very wrong results in some cases

 

BTW, in case you don't know, you can very easily override almost any
class used by the framework with a single line in your config.php file:

    $this->classes->registerClass('MY_getGroupsQuery',
'USER_getGroupsQuery', 'myPlugin');

now you can provide your own class as a substitute to the default one,
and even extend from it:

    class MY_getGroupsQuery extends USER_getGroupsQuery
    {
        ...
    }

Title:
  USER_getGroupsQuery and USER_getRolesQuery give back very wrong
  results in some cases

Status in Open Source PHP RAD Framework with UI.:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Both methods are written without really taking into account that they
  might be called to get informations about another user, not the logged
  in one.

  PHPDS->USER_getRolesQuery() checks $this->user->mergeRoles and
  abandons further database checks if that field is not empty. It also
  writes informations to $this->user->mergeRoles, so the results of the
  first user checked by this query will be the only result given back by
  it in future calls. And I'm pretty sure $this->user->mergeRoles should
  return only current users roles.

  PHPDS->USER_getGroupsQuery() does exactly the same with $this->user->mergeGroups, and further more it gives back the main group more than once (this is because $group_string will contain the main group after checking it for childs. $group_main shouln't be merged with $group_string after this).
  Also, $group_array is an array resonse from a query. It should be extended with $group_array[] = array('user_group_id' => $group_main), not $group_array[$group_main] = array('user_group_id' => $group_main)

  To test this just run $this->userGetRoles($userid) or
  $this->userGetGroups($userid) for 2 different users.
