>                 Key: HDFS-11069
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-11069
>             Project: Hadoop HDFS
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: datanode, security
>            Reporter: Kihwal Lee
>
> The current implementation of {{checkSuperuserPrivilege()}} allows the 
> datanode user from any node to be recognized as a super user.  If one 
> datanode is compromised, the intruder can issue {{shutdownDatanode()}}, 
> {{evictWriters()}}, {{triggerBlockReport()}}, etc. against all other 
> datanodes.
> This needs to be tightened to allow only the local datanode user.
