Eric Yang commented on YARN-7430:
---------------------------------
[~ebadger] They are two separate problems. A lot of conversation here belongs
to YARN-7446. This issue is to tackle the problem that we have a implicit
privilege escalation security hole in the default shipped configuration when
the following condition is met:
# Privileged container is enabled.
# Deploy docker container with user mapping to a different uid:gid than host
OS, or using a numeric username to launch app.
# Data output from container is written with as someone else or root group.
In summary, to prevent privileges escalation, we should always pass in primary
group to improve security.
> User and Group mapping are incorrect in docker container

> In YARN-4266, the recommendation was to use -u [uid]:[gid] numeric values to
> enforce user and group for the running user. In YARN-6623, this translated
> to --user=test --group-add=group1. The code no longer enforce group
> correctly for launched process.
> In addition, the implementation in YARN-6623 requires the user and group
> information to exist in container to translate username and group to uid/gid.
> For users on LDAP, there is no good way to populate container with user and
> group information.
