Siddharth Seth commented on MAPREDUCE-3942: ------------------------------------------- The patch looks good. It needs to be upmerged though. Is the additional synchronization in ApplicationTokenIdentifier really required ? Doesn't look like any of the synchronized methods are called concurrently. > Randomize master key generation for ApplicationTokenSecretManager and roll it > every so often > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MAPREDUCE-3942 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-3942 > Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: mrv2, security > Affects Versions: 0.23.0 > Reporter: Vinod Kumar Vavilapalli > Assignee: Vinod Kumar Vavilapalli > Fix For: 0.23.2 > > Attachments: MAPREDUCE-3942-20120307.1.txt, > MAPREDUCE-3942-20120307.txt > > > - Master key for authentication of AMs need to be automatically generated. > - The key needs to be rolled every so often but AMs with old keys should > continue to be able to talk to the RM. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
