Information processing device and multifunction peripheral

摘要

A control API controls secret data to be stored in a secret data storage area which is accessible only to the control API. Moreover, the control API controls the file information storing part in the secret data storage area to store (i) storing location information of the stored secret data and (ii) administrative storage location information notified by the web application so that the storing location information and the administrative storage location information are associated with each other. This makes it possible to (i) prevent a leakage of confidential information and (ii) allow an authorized web application to easily use the confidential information.

主权项

1. An information processing device comprising:
a web server section for executing, by a processor device, a web application; a data storing section for storing data used in the web application; and a data managing section for managing data to be stored in the data storing section in a case where the web application controls the data storing section to store secret data which is associated and applicable only to said web application, the web application notifying the data managing section of (i) a data name of the secret data and (ii) administrative storage location information of the secret data in the web application which is different from an actual location storing said secret data, wherein the data managing section controlling the secret data to be stored in a secret data storage area in the data storing section, which secret data storage area is (i) different from a storage area corresponding to the administrative storage location information, (ii) accessible only to the data managing section, and (iii) not accessible directly by the web application, and the data managing section controlling correspondence information to be stored in the secret data storage area, the correspondence information being indicative of a correspondence between (i) storing location information indicative of a location in which the secret data is actually stored and (ii) the administrative storage location information notified by said web application.
