Todd Lipcon updated KUDU-1843:
------------------------------
    Status: In Review  (was: Open)

> Client UUIDs should be cryptographically random
> -----------------------------------------------
>
>                 Key: KUDU-1843
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KUDU-1843
>             Project: Kudu
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: security
>    Affects Versions: 1.3.0
>            Reporter: Todd Lipcon
>            Assignee: Todd Lipcon
>            Priority: Critical
>
> Currently we use boost::uuid's default random generator, which is not 
> cryptographically random. This may increase the ease with which an attacker 
> could guess another client's client ID, which would potentially allow them to 
> perform DoS or try to steal the results of RPCs from the result cache.
