> A concern with enabling BasicAuth is that it is less secure than OIDC which has a expiry of tokens, while a password is long-lived. To mitigate this added surface area, I wonder how easy it would be to "lock down" what a BasicAuth user can do in the system, such as limiting the role's permissions to block any request except /admin/system/info and /admin/collection?cmd=CLUSTERSTATUS. I think this is doable in authorization.. Not sure why this is a concern? Locking down endpoints to a specific role (or roles) is why we have the authorization framework. The introduction of the `MultiAuthPlugin` really has no bearing on how people choose to configure their permissions. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
