----------------------------------------
Summary: Patch that fixes UGI#reloginFromKeytab on java 8
Key: HADOOP-10786
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-10786
Project: Hadoop Common
Issue Type: Bug
Components: security
Reporter: Tobi Vollebregt
Priority: Minor
Krb5LoginModule changed subtly in java 8: in particular, if useKeyTab and
storeKey are specified, then only a KeyTab object is added to the Subject's
private credentials, whereas in java <= 7 both a KeyTab and some number of
KerberosKey objects was added.
The UGI constructor checks whether or not a keytab was used to login by looking
if there are any KerberosKey objects in the Subject's private credentials. If
there are, the isKeyTab is set to true, and otherwise it's false.
Thus, in java 8 isKeyTab is always false given the current UGI implementation,
which makes UGI#reloginFromKeytab fail silently.
Attached patch will check for a KeyTab object on the Subject, instead of a
KerberosKey object. This fixes relogins from kerberos keytabs on Oracle java 8,
and works on Oracle java 7 as well.
