ASF GitHub Bot commented on FLINK-3930: --------------------------------------- Github user mxm commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/2425 CC @uce to check out the network layer changes. This is a very sensitive and performance critical part of Flink. We should be very sure nothing breaks it with the changes. @vijikarthi Please have a look at the null checks in the network code. I would replace them with `checkNotNull` and never pass any null values in there. It would be desirable that turned off security doesn't have any overhead with the security support built in. > Implement Service-Level Authorization > ------------------------------------- > > Key: FLINK-3930 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-3930 > Project: Flink > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Security > Reporter: Eron Wright > Assignee: Vijay Srinivasaraghavan > Labels: security > Original Estimate: 672h > Remaining Estimate: 672h > > _This issue is part of a series of improvements detailed in the [Secure Data > Access|https://docs.google.com/document/d/1-GQB6uVOyoaXGwtqwqLV8BHDxWiMO2WnVzBoJ8oPaAs/edit?usp=sharing] > design doc._ > Service-level authorization is the initial authorization mechanism to ensure > clients (or servers) connecting to the Flink cluster are authorized to do so. > The purpose is to prevent a cluster from being used by an unauthorized > user, whether to execute jobs, disrupt cluster functionality, or gain access > to secrets stored within the cluster. > Implement service-level authorization as described in the design doc. > - Introduce a shared secret cookie > - Enable Akka security cookie > - Implement data transfer authentication > - Secure the web dashboard -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
