                 Key: SPARK-26802
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-26802
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Security, PySpark
    Affects Versions: 2.2.2, 2.1.3, 2.0.2, 1.6.3
            Reporter: Imran Rashid
            Assignee: Luca Canali
             Fix For: 2.4.0, 2.3.2, 2.2.3


Severity: Important

Vendor: The Apache Software Foundation

Versions affected:
All Spark 1.x, Spark 2.0.x, and Spark 2.1.x versions
Spark 2.2.0 to 2.2.2
Spark 2.3.0 to 2.3.1

Description:
When using PySpark , it's possible for a different local user to connect to the Spark application and impersonate the user running the Spark application.  This affects versions 1.x, 2.0.x, 2.1.x, 2.2.0 to 2.2.2, and 2.3.0 to 2.3.1.

Mitigation:
1.x, 2.0.x, 2.1.x, and 2.2.x users should upgrade to 2.2.3 or newer
2.3.x users should upgrade to 2.3.2 or newer
Otherwise, affected users should avoid using PySpark in multi-user environments.
