ggershinsky opened a new issue, #5103: URL: https://github.com/apache/iceberg/issues/5103
If table properties are kept only in metadata.json file, they can be modified by an attacker with r/w storage rights. For example, removing the table encryption key property - which makes future writes unencrypted. In the long run, we will protect against this attack by signing the metadata.json contents. This will require Iceberg spec additions. For example, adding a signature field to snapshots. Also, requiring a new entry for a table in catalog services (either table uuid, or a signature). -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
