Doug Cutting commented on MAPREDUCE-181: ---------------------------------------- > Today, we put version per file. I was suggesting that we could put the version for all files in a root-file like job.xml, to avoid adding a file just for the version. I personally would prefer that, and, if I were implementing it, would do it that way, but I am not implementing this and would not block this patch over that decision. > Secure job submission > ---------------------- > > Key: MAPREDUCE-181 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-181 > Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Amar Kamat > Assignee: Amar Kamat > Attachments: hadoop-3578-branch-20-example-2.patch, > hadoop-3578-branch-20-example.patch, HADOOP-3578-v2.6.patch, > HADOOP-3578-v2.7.patch, MAPRED-181-v3.8.patch > > > Currently the jobclient accesses the {{mapred.system.dir}} to add job > details. Hence the {{mapred.system.dir}} has the permissions of > {{rwx-wx-wx}}. This could be a security loophole where the job files might > get overwritten/tampered after the job submission. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
