--------------------------------
Summary: User authorization: Able to create a users with the same
name which causes that user to lose User & Policies privileges
Key: NIFI-2329
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-2329
Project: Apache NiFi
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Core UI
Affects Versions: 1.0.0
Reporter: Andrew Lim
Priority: Critical
I had an initial admin user who had default privs to access and modify Users &
Policies. The UI allowed me to create another user with the same name. After
that, the user could no longer access Users (get the error "Unable to perform
the desired action due to insufficient permissions. Contact the system
administrator." and can get into the Policies window, but can no longer make
changes and see the message "Not authorized to access the policy for the
specified resource."
