             Summary: Make the login example cookie expire
                 Key: OOZIE-1220
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OOZIE-1220
             Project: Oozie
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: security
    Affects Versions: trunk, 3.3.2
            Reporter: Robert Kanter
            Assignee: Robert Kanter
             Fix For: trunk, 3.3.2


The login example cookie expires only when the web browser exits.  This means 
that if the hadoop.auth cookie expires, the {{ExampleAltAuthenticationHandler}} 
will automatically give you a new hadoop.auth cookie; in other words, the 
hadoop.auth cookie effectively never expires (as long as the web browser 
remains open) because it will be recreated forever.  It would be good if the 
login example cookie was set to expire so that eventually both cookies would 
expire and you'd be forced to actually re-login.  

The expiration time should be configurable, but default to a low time like 5 
min (because once you get the hadoop.auth cookie, you don't need it anymore).
