Miklos Szegedi commented on YARN-5534:
--------------------------------------
Thank you, [[email protected]] and [~vinodkv] for the details. As Shane
said, Java knows the configuration letting launch the container and seeing it
fail in C. If the system is sending so many invalid privileged requests that it
affects system performance because of this, there is already something wrong
with that system.
However, one more thing. While having a general config to enable/disable
privileged is nice, I think eventually admins will need to specify the users
that should be allowed to elevate to privileged. This can be applied probably
on the whitelist as well. Sorry for raising too many design questions late in
the development.

> Introduction
> Mounting files or directories from the host is one way of passing
> configuration and other information into a docker container.
> We could allow the user to set a list of mounts in the environment of
> ContainerLaunchContext (e.g. /dir1:/targetdir1,/dir2:/targetdir2).
> These would be mounted read-only to the specified target locations. This has
> been resolved in YARN-4595
> 2.Problem Definition
> Bug mounting arbitrary volumes into a Docker container can be a security risk.
> 3.Possible solutions
> one approach to provide safe mounts is to allow the cluster administrator to
> configure a set of parent directories as white list mounting directories.
> Add a property named yarn.nodemanager.volume-mounts.white-list, when
> container executor do mount checking, only the allowed directories or
> sub-directories can be mounted.
