Todd Lipcon commented on MAPREDUCE-2858:
----------------------------------------

bq. Also, the proxy should be doing NO parsing or rewriting of the pages

Absolutely agreed. The number of ways to get JavaScript running, or to embed 
external content inside HTML content is amazing. Properly sandboxing untrusted 
content inside a page without resorting to IFRAMEs is practically research 
territory. Writing our own implementation of this is totally crazy. If we go 
that route, we should use something like Google's Caja framework.

>             Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce
>          Issue Type: Sub-task
>          Components: applicationmaster, mrv2, security
>    Affects Versions: 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.
