Hi Igor, If we want to support migration of server-side credentials using Admin API, we would need to get all of the data that is in the stored credential (salt, number of iterations and salted password). That is sufficient for a dictionary attack and to impersonate a server. Even though the salt

Hi all, First of all, apologies for digging up this year-old thread. I believe that without further changes we will be losing support for a couple of important SCRAM management scenarios after the transition to a Zookeeper-less Kafka. One of the scenarios is a migration of a cluster. Topics

Hi Colin, We have used different approaches for kafka-configs using ZooKeeper and using brokers until now. This is based on the fact that whatever you can access using kafka-configs with ZooKeeper, you can also access directly using ZooKeeper shell. For example, you can retrieve any config stored

Hi Colin, The AdminClient should do the hashing, right? I don't see any advantage to > doing it externally. I'm happy so long as the AdminClient interface doesn't require users to do the hashing themselves. I do think we should support setting the salt explicitly, but really only > for

Hi Colin, It's not clear whether users of the Java API would need to supply the salt and salted password directly, or whether the constructor of ScramCredential would take the password and perform the hashing itself. I also wonder a little about consistency with the other APIs which have

Hi Colin, If I understood correctly, in your design, listScramUsers will return the mechanism and iteration. Let’s use the field naming of RFC 5802 for this discussion: SaltedPassword := Hi(Normalize(password), salt, i) ClientKey := HMAC(SaltedPassword, "Client Key")

Hi Jakub, This supersedes KIP-506. However, I think maybe some of the ideas from KIP-506 might be worth exploring in separate KIPs down the road (like having secure endpoints where certain admin operations were disabled). But we want to stay focused on getting SCRAM to work without the ZK

Hi Colin, Thanks for the KIP. A couple of comments below: 1) SCRAM password is never sent over the wire today, not by clients, not by tools. A salted-hashed version of it stored in ZooKeeper is sent over the wire to ZK and read by brokers from ZK. Another randomly-salted-hashed version is sent

Hi Colin, SCRAM is better than SASL PLAIN because it doesn't send the password over the wire in the clear. Presumably this property is important for some users who have chosen to use SCRAM. This proposal does send the password in the clear when setting the password. That doesn't mean it can't be

I think once something becomes more complex than just key = value it's time to consider an official Kafka API, rather than trying to fit it into AlterConfigs. For example, for client quotas, we have KIP-546. There are just so many reasons. Real Kafka APIs have well-defined compatibility

Got it. Besides SCRAM, are there other scenarios that we may have such "hierarchical" (I know the term may not be very accurate here :P) configs such as "config1=[key1=value1, key2=value2]" compared with most common pattern of "config1=value1" or "config1=value1,config2=value2"? For example I

If we use AlterConfigs then we end up parsing strings like 'SCRAM-SHA-256=[iterations=8192,password=alice-secret],SCRAM-SHA-512=[password=alice-secret]' on the broker into the same information that's currently in ScramUserAlteration. This doesn't change the complexity of the command-line
