Todd Lipcon commented on HIVE-842: ---------------------------------- I don't anticipate breaking the web UI (or anything) on non-secure Hadoop versions. But it will probably be insecure to run the web UI, which currently trusts users to say who they want to be - i.e I don't plan in the short term to integrate an auth layer for the web UI itself. > Authentication Infrastructure for Hive > -------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-842 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-842 > Project: Hadoop Hive > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Server Infrastructure > Reporter: Edward Capriolo > Assignee: Todd Lipcon > Attachments: HiveSecurityThoughts.pdf > > > This issue deals with the authentication (user name,password) infrastructure. > Not the authorization components that specify what a user should be able to > do. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
