[jira] [Created] (HBASE-13768) ZooKeeper znodes are bootstrapped with insecure ACLs in a secure configuration

--------------------------------------

             Summary: ZooKeeper znodes are bootstrapped with insecure ACLs in a secure configuration
                 Key: HBASE-13768
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-13768
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Andrew Purtell
            Assignee: Enis Soztutar
            Priority: Blocker
             Fix For: 0.98.12.1, 1.0.1.1, 1.1.0.1, 2.0.0, 1.0.2, 1.2.0, 1.1.1, 0.98.13


A logic error causes HBase in most secure configuration deployments to
handle its coordination state in ZooKeeper via insecure ACLs. Anyone with
remote unauthenticated network access to the ZooKeeper quorum, which by
definition includes all HBase clients, can make use of this opening to violate the operational integrity of the system. For example, critical znodes can be deleted, causing outages. It is possible to introduce rogue replication endpoints. It is possible to direct the distributed log splitting facility to split arbitrary files in HDFS.
