Luke Lu commented on MAPREDUCE-2858:
------------------------------------
bq. Luke, I would think that the urls should be
http://proxyhost:proxyport/appmaster/$appid.
Unless you change the AM url convention to be
http://amhost:amport/appmaster/$appid/..., you'll have to rewrite the URLs
(currently we don't require $appid in AM urls).
OTOH, this does have the advantage of AM url stability (over restart etc.).
This is also a good optimization for cases when you don't need filtering, i.e.
when the request user is the owner of AM. OTOH, I wrote the proxy to be generic
enough to filter any untrusted URLs. IMO, the scanner does not get much simpler
even if with this scheme as the scanner needs to parse the urls anyway for
whitelist checking.
> MRv2 WebApp Security
> --------------------
>
> Key: MAPREDUCE-2858
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-2858
> Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: applicationmaster, mrv2, security
> Affects Versions: 0.23.0
> Reporter: Luke Lu
> Assignee: Luke Lu
> Priority: Blocker
> Fix For: 0.23.0
>
>
> In MRv2, while the system servers (ResourceManager (RM), NodeManager (NM) and
> NameNode (NN)) run as "trusted"
> system users, the application masters (AM) run as users who submit the
> application. While this offers great flexibility
> to run multiple version of mapreduce frameworks (including their UI) on the
> same Hadoop cluster, it has significant
> implication for the security of webapps (Please do not discuss company
> specific vulnerabilities here).
> Requirements:
> # Secure authentication for AM (for app/job level ACLs).
> # Webapp security should be optional via site configuration.
> # Support existing pluggable single sign on mechanisms.
> # Should not require per app/user configuration for deployment.
> # Should not require special site-wide DNS configuration for deployment.
> This the top jira for webapp security. A design doc/notes of threat-modeling
> and counter measures will be posted on the wiki.
