> In a deployment that separates tenant access to Hadoop resources through dedicated topologies with tenant specific authentication, there are a couple issues:
> * pac4j provider seems to be caching config settings in a singleton which makes the redirect url nondeterministic.
> * knoxsso cookie would be trusted across tenant specific topologies which could lead to unauthorized access to resources that belongs to another tenant
> The use of tenant specific audience claims within the JWT token could be used to mitigate the cross tenant trust issue.
> We need to investigate the pac4j provider issue with the singleton config.
