["Justin Bertram (Jira)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARTEMIS-2959?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Justin Bertram resolved ARTEMIS-2959.
-------------------------------------
    Fix Version/s:     (was: 2.17.0)
       Resolution: Won't Do

Given that security is pluggable (e.g. via customer SecurityManager implementations as well as customer JAAS login modules) I don't see how the broker can reliably detect whether or not the {{cluster-user}} exists in the security repository.

> The broker has a special cluster user and cluster password and when doing
> authentication it always check the cluster user first.
> If user configures a cluster user name that is the same as one of it's
> normal users, the broker always authenticate that normal user
> against the cluster password which is not right and probably failed
> authentication as the cluster password usually not the same as
> the normal user's password.
> To avoid such a case the broker should check the configuration
> during startup and if the cluster user name collides with a normal
> user name, it should report as an error.
