Oliver Payne created KAFKA-13859: ------------------------------------ Summary: SCRAM authentication issues with kafka-clients 3.0.1 Key: KAFKA-13859 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-13859 Project: Kafka Issue Type: Bug Components: clients Affects Versions: 3.0.1 Reporter: Oliver Payne
When attempting to produce records to Kafka using a client configured with SCRAM authentication, the authentication is being rejected, and the following exception is thrown: {{org.apache.kafka.common.errors.ClusterAuthorizationException: Cluster authorization failed.}} I am seeing this happen with a Springboot service that was recently upgraded to 2.6.5. After looking into this, I learned that Springboot moved to kafka-clients 3.0.1 from 3.0.0 in that version. And sure enough, downgrading to kafka-clients resolved the issue, with no changes made to the configs. I have also attempted to connect to a separate server with kafka-clients 3.0.1, using plaintext authentication. That works fine. So the issue appears to be with SCRAM authentication. I will note that I am attempting to connect to an AWS MSK instance. We use SCRAM-SHA-512 as our sasl mechanism, using the basic {{ScramLoginModule.}} -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.7#820007)
