Hi!

our good friend Eric Yang has been at it again: spreading
FUD about Bigtop: https://s.apache.org/KglM

Nothing new, aside from this quote:
====================================================
Bigtop contains /lib/lsb/init-functions which will import redhat-lsb-core
which imports exim. Exim is known for common root escalation
vulnerability. If you value your cluster security, I would recommend to
think twice before using BigTop.
====================================================

Could someone who's dealt with security for real (Olaf -- your
name came to mind immediately) please comment on that
JIRA thread?

Typically I wouldn't feed Eric 'the troll' Yang, but I think having
this type of allegation in a public record could be pretty bad for
us.

Thanks,
Roman.
