The GetFileSecurity function obtains specified information about the security of a file or directory. The information obtained is constrained by the caller’s access rights and privileges.
BOOL GetFileSecurity(
LPCTSTR lpFileName, |
// address of string for file name |
SECURITY_INFORMATION RequestedInformation, |
// requested information |
PSECURITY_DESCRIPTOR pSecurityDescriptor, |
// address of security descriptor |
DWORD nLength, |
// size of security descriptor buffer |
LPDWORD lpnLengthNeeded |
// address of required size of buffer |
); |
If the function succeeds, the return value is nonzero.
If the function fails, the return value is zero. To get extended error information, call GetLastError.
To read the owner, group, or DACL from the security descriptor for the specified file or directory, the DACL for the file or directory must grant READ_CONTROL access to the caller or the caller must be the owner of the file or directory.
To read the system access-control list (SACL) of a file or directory, the SE_SECURITY_NAME privilege must be enabled for the calling process.
