Alejandro Abdelnur commented on MAPREDUCE-2858: ----------------------------------------------- Robert, Are you suggesting that we should keep the proxy with a switch to disable rewriting so the proxy redirects (a redirect would work as opposed to actually proxying,no?) to the history server when the AM goes away? If so, it makes sense. > 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, 0.24.0 > Reporter: Luke Lu > Assignee: Robert Joseph Evans > Priority: Blocker > Fix For: 0.23.0 > > Attachments: MR-2858-branch-0.23.txt, MR-2858-branch-0.23.txt, > MR-2858.txt, MR-2858.txt > > > 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. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
