[jira] [Created] (HIVE-7634) Use Configuration.getPassword() if available to eliminate passwords from hive-site.xml

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

             Summary: Use Configuration.getPassword() if available to eliminate passwords from hive-site.xml
                 Key: HIVE-7634
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-7634
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Security
            Reporter: Jason Dere
            Assignee: Jason Dere


HADOOP-10607 provides a Configuration.getPassword() API that allows passwords to be retrieved from a configured credential provider, while also being able to fall back to the HiveConf setting if no provider is set up.  Hive should use this API for versions of Hadoop that support this API. This would give users the ability to remove the passwords from their Hive configuration files.
