Manikumar commented on KAFKA-5714:
----------------------------------

[~alla@confluent.io] From the code, I can see that we are allowing white spaces in the principal name.  Can you explain more about your observation/scenario?

>             Project: Kafka
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: security
>    Affects Versions: 0.10.2.1
>            Reporter: Alla Tumarkin
>
> Request
> Improve parser behavior to allow whitespaces in the principal name in the config file, as in:
> {code}
> super.users=User:CN=Unknown, OU=Unknown, O=Unknown, L=Unknown, ST=Unknown, C=Unknown
> {code}
> Background
> Current implementation requires that there are no whitespaces after commas, i.e.
> {code}
> super.users=User:CN=Unknown,OU=Unknown,O=Unknown,L=Unknown,ST=Unknown,C=Unknown
> {code}
> Note: having a semicolon at the end doesn't help, i.e. this does not work either
> {code}
> super.users=User:CN=Unknown, OU=Unknown, O=Unknown, L=Unknown, ST=Unknown, C=Unknown;
> {code}
