Daryn Sharp created HADOOP-8999: ----------------------------------- Summary: SASL negotiation is flawed Key: HADOOP-8999 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-8999 Project: Hadoop Common Issue Type: Sub-task Components: ipc Reporter: Daryn Sharp Assignee: Daryn Sharp
The RPC protocol used for SASL negotiation is flawed. The server's RPC response contains the next SASL challenge token, but a SASL server can return null (I'm done) or a N-many byte challenge. The server currently will not send a RPC success response to the client if the SASL server returns null, which causes the client to hang until it times out. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
