Joerg Schad commented on MESOS-5761:
------------------------------------

The problem with orphaned tasks is that we don't necessarily access to the 
FrameworkInfo and hence we cannot authorize them as we would do for 
running/staged task (i.e., first check Task/TaskInfo and as fallback check 
FrameworInfo).
I see three options for dealing with this problem:

1. Coarse granular authz for orphaned tasks
Introduce a new acls/authz action for allowing a user to view orphaned tasks 
(i.e., all or none).

2. Add FrameworkInfo to Task (and then authorize orphaned Tasks the same way we 
would running/staged ones)
The drawback here would be the increased size (and hence memory usage) for 
storing Tasks. FrameworkInfo can have large fields.
Note that FrameworkInfo will be stored for each Task and hence potentially 
duplicated.

3. Add a new datastructure to the master storing a mapping of frameworkID to 
frameworkInfo (the frameworkInfo is part of Task and hence we can authorize 
orphaned Tasks the same way we would running/staged ones)
This would lead to less storage overhead compared to 2, but might be a little 
more complex to implement as we have to fill/cleanup such datastructure.

> Currently, we don't filter orphaned tasks based on user authorization. This 
> can potentially expose sensitive information to users.
