> YARN-1972 introduces a Secure Windows Container Executor. However this
> executor requires a the process launching the container to be LocalSystem or
> a member of the a local Administrators group. Since the process in question
> is the NodeManager, the requirement translates to the entire NM to run as a
> privileged account, a very large surface area to review and protect.
> This proposal is to move the privileged operations into a dedicated NT
> service. The NM can run as a low privilege account and communicate with the
> privileged NT service when it needs to launch a container. This would reduce
> the surface exposed to the high privileges.
> There has to exist a secure, authenticated and authorized channel of
> communication between the NM and the privileged NT service. Possible
> alternatives are a new TCP endpoint, Java RPC etc. My proposal though would
> be to use Windows LPC (Local Procedure Calls), which is a Windows platform
> specific inter-process communication channel that satisfies all requirements
> and is easy to deploy. The privileged NT service would register and listen on
> an LPC port (NtCreatePort, NtListenPort). The NM would use JNI to interop
> with libwinutils which would host the LPC client code. The client would
> connect to the LPC port (NtConnectPort) and send a message requesting a
> container launch (NtRequestWaitReplyPort). LPC provides authentication and
> the privileged NT service can use authorization API (AuthZ) to validate the
> caller.
