Robert Kanter commented on OOZIE-2779: -------------------------------------- I don't have a good counterexample off the top of my head, but what if {{"-p"}} is a non-password valid argument for some other component? Or becomes one in the future? For instance, it could stand for "parallel" or something. So I don't think we should block all {{"-p"}} args across all Action types. How about we make {{printArgs}} take additional arguments for additional things to mask? {code:java} public static void printArgs(String banner, String[] args, String... custom) { ... for (String c : custom) { if (arg.toLowerCase.contains(c)) { maskNextArg = true; } } ... {code} Then in {{Hive2Action}}, we'd call: {code:java} LauncherMapper.printArgs("Beeline command arguments :", arguments.toArray(new String[arguments.size()], "-p")); {code} And other Action types can add other arguments as necessary. > Mask Hive2 action Beeline JDBC password > --------------------------------------- > > Key: OOZIE-2779 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OOZIE-2779 > Project: Oozie > Issue Type: Bug > Components: action > Reporter: Abhishek Bafna > Assignee: Abhishek Bafna > Labels: security > Fix For: 5.0.0 > > Attachments: OOZIE-2779-00.patch > > > Hive2 Oozie launcher job prints the JDBC password into launcher stdout logs. > {noformat} > Beeline command arguments : > -u > jdbc:hive2://source-1:10000/default > -n > ambari-qa > -p > DUMMY > -d > org.apache.hive.jdbc.HiveDriver > {noformat} -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346)
