------------------------------------------

             Summary: Don't return "Reason" on a 401
                 Key: ATLAS-1525
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ATLAS-1525
             Project: Atlas
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Colm O hEigeartaigh
             Fix For: 0.8-incubating


When authorization fails via the REST API, Atlas is returning the "Reason". 
This is definitely not good security practice, if not an outright security risk.

For example on an unknown user it is returning "Reason:
<pre>    Username not found.xxxx" and for an incorrect password " Reason: <pre> 
   Wrong password</pre>".
