Pierre Villard commented on NIFI-12599:
---------------------------------------

A processor or controller service that requires to read a specific 
configuration file on the filesystem for its proper usage is totally fine. The 
problem here is really that the configured file could end up as the content of 
a flow file. If you do see a component for which a malicious user could use its 
configuration with a file to load the content of that file in the content of a 
flow file, please let us know.

> Add proper restrictions on some lookup controller services
