Summary: Access SSL Passwords through Credential Provider API
Key: HBASE-11810
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-11810
Project: HBase
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: security
Reporter: Larry McCay
HADOOP-10607 introduced the credential provider API for allowing passwords and
other sensitive configuration items to be stored in an external provider.
RESTServer is accessing passwords stored in clear text in Configuration through
the standard get() method. By using the new Configuration.getPassword method
instead, the credential provider API will be checked first then fall back to
clear text - when allowed.
