  36. Symfony\Component\Security\Core\Authorization \AccessDecisionManager The object needs: • voters • a decision

    strategy • $allowIfAllAbstainDecisions • $allowIfEqualGrantedDeniedDecisions
  37. VOTERS Voters are sorted by the attribute priority (the highest

    is the last to be executed). If you don’t put any priority, => 0 (first to be executed)

  40. decideConsensus • Gives access if the majority says ACCESS_GRANTED (without

    abstainer) • If voters saying ACCESS_GRANTED === voters saying ACCESS_DENIED => the configuration takes the decision security.access_decision_manager.allow_if_equal_granted_denied Majority says yes. default = true

    strategy. (because all voters are executed)
