[jira] [Created] (ZEPPELIN-3526) Zeppelin auth mechanisms (LDAP or password based) should be mutually exclusive

Prabhjyot Singh created ZEPPELIN-3526:
-----------------------------------------

             Summary: Zeppelin auth mechanisms (LDAP or password based) should be mutually exclusive
                 Key: ZEPPELIN-3526
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZEPPELIN-3526
             Project: Zeppelin
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 0.7.3
            Reporter: Prabhjyot Singh


Problem:
When any external authentication (like LDAP/AD) is enabled for Zeppelin, the default password-based authentication could still be configured in addition to that. This makes space for backdoor in Zeppelin where user can still get in using the local username/password.

Workaround:
Currently, the workaround is to make sure that \[users\] is removed from shiro.ini to stop anyone logging using local username/password.

Proposed Solution:
Zeppelin shouldn't allow specifying \[users\] section in shiro.ini when it is configured to authenticate with LDAP/AD.
