Eric Yang commented on YARN-7516:
---------------------------------

[~ebadger] Thanks for the review.  The untrusted image will appear as 
privileged but all kernel privileges dropped.  Therefore, it isn't really 
privileged, only appear as root in the docker container without real root 
privileges to outside world.  This helps to run as a sandbox for simulation 
test.  The generated docker command looks like:

{code}
docker run --privileged --cap-drop='ALL' ... centos:latest bash
{code}

If you are suggesting to disallow --privileged flag for untrusted image 
completely, then it will limit our ability to try out new images before 
verifying the untrusted image can be promoted to privileged registry.  Does 
this help to explain the reason that we don't check registry is privileged in 
set_privileged flag?

> Hadoop YARN Services can support using private docker registry image or 
> docker image from docker hub.  In current implementation, Hadoop security is 
> enforced through username and group membership, and enforce uid:gid 
> consistency in docker container and distributed file system.  There is cloud 
> use case for having ability to run untrusted docker image on the same cluster 
> for testing.  
> The basic requirement for untrusted container is to ensure all kernel and 
> root privileges are dropped, and there is no interaction with distributed 
> file system to avoid contamination.  We can probably enforce detection of 
> untrusted docker image by checking the following:
> # If docker image is from public docker hub repository, the container is 
> automatically flagged as insecure, and disk volume mount are disabled 
> automatically, and drop all kernel capabilities.
> # If docker image is from private repository in docker hub, and there is a 
> white list to allow the private repository, disk volume mount is allowed, 
> kernel capabilities follows the allowed list.
> # If docker image is from private trusted registry with image name like 
> "private.registry.local:5000/centos", and white list allows this private 
> trusted repository.  Disk volume mount is allowed, kernel capabilities 
> follows the allowed list.
