> Based on the discussion on HADOOP-10670, this jira proposes to remove 
> {{StringSecretProvider}} as it opens up possibilities for misconfiguration 
> and security vulnerabilities.
> {quote}
> My understanding is that the use case of inlining the secret is never 
> supported. The property is used to pass the secret internally. The way it 
> works before HADOOP-10868 is the following:
> * Users specify the initializer of the authentication filter in the 
> configuration.
> * AuthenticationFilterInitializer reads the secret file. The server will not 
> start if the secret file does not exists. The initializer will set the 
> property if it read the file correctly.
> *There is no way to specify the secret in the configuration out-of-the-box – 
> the secret is always overwritten by AuthenticationFilterInitializer.
