             Summary: Master should not deactivate authenticated 
framework/slave on new AuthenticateMessage unless new authentication succeeds.
                 Key: MESOS-1081
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-1081
             Project: Mesos
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: master
            Reporter: Adam B


Master should not deactivate an authenticated framework/slave upon receiving a 
new AuthenticateMessage unless new authentication succeeds. As it stands now, a 
malicious user could spoof the pid of an authenticated framework/slave and send 
an AuthenticateMessage to knock a valid framework/slave off the authenticated 
list, forcing the valid framework/slave to re-authenticate and re-register. 
This could be used in a DoS attack.
But how should we handle the scenario when the actual authenticated 
framework/slave sends an AuthenticateMessage that fails authentication?
