Kai Zheng commented on HADOOP-12579:
------------------------------------
Ok, I agree, since we remain the enum values for other entries, just removing
the obsolete entry. Will update it.
> Deprecate and remove WriteableRPCEngine

> The {{WriteableRPCEninge}} depends on Java's serialization mechanisms for RPC
> requests. Without proper checks, it has be shown that it can lead to security
> vulnerabilities such as remote code execution (e.g., COLLECTIONS-580,
> HADOOP-12577).
> The current implementation has migrated from {{WriteableRPCEngine}} to
> {{ProtobufRPCEngine}} now. This jira proposes to deprecate
> {{WriteableRPCEngine}} in branch-2 and to remove it in trunk.
