Robert Kanter updated OOZIE-1651:
---------------------------------
Attachment: OOZIE-1651.patch
The patch adds a new property
{{oozie.service.ConfigurationService.mask.properties}} that defaults to
"password,secret" where Oozie will mask properties that end with those values.
Besides the unit test, I also verified it in the Web UI.
> Oozie should mask the signature secret in the configuration output

> Key: OOZIE-1651

> Project: Oozie
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: security
> Affects Versions: 3.3.2, 4.0.0
> Reporter: Robert Kanter

> The value of {{oozie.authentication.signature.secret}} is the secret that's
> used to sign the cookies/tokens crated by Oozie for authentication after
> Kerberos. If a malicious user were to find out this secret, they could forge
> counterfeit cookies/tokens as any user with any expiration date.
> Oozie exposed the configuration properties via its REST API. It currently
> only masks any properties that end with ".password" (i.e.
> {{oozie.service.JPAService.jdbc.password}}). We should expand this to also
> mask the signature secret.
> In fact, it would be useful to generalize this ability to add a property that
> masks something the user can configure.
