------------------------------------
Hey [~kihwal], it looks like you missed some fix versions (2.8.? and I think
probably 2.9) when you committed, can you update them?

> 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. Although this does not expose stored data, it can cause service
> disruptions.
> This needs to be tightened to allow only the local datanode user.
