Greg Phillips commented on YARN-5280:
-------------------------------------
[~rkanter] - Thanks for your insights. I have added tests for every regex
which demonstrate positive/negative cases. Additionally the patterns have been
modified to ensure the passed command will instantiate a JVM.
Application submitters are still able to provide arbitrary commands to launch
the ApplicationMaster. If they provide command which doesn't use java it will
be blocked in 'enforcing' mode. Otherwise they could potentially call any
version of java which exists on the system where the Application Master is
allocated (including /evil/java).

> YARN applications have the ability to perform privileged actions which have
> the potential to add instability into the cluster. The Java Security Manager
> can be used to prevent users from running privileged actions while still
> allowing their core data processing use cases.
> Introduce a YARN flag which will allow a Hadoop administrator to enable the
> Java Security Manager for user code, while still providing complete
> permissions to core Hadoop libraries.
