> The cipher transformation currently used for encrypting RPC calls is an unauthenticated mode (AES/CTR/NoPadding). This needs to be upgraded to an authenticated mode (AES/GCM/NoPadding) to prevent ciphertext from being modified in transit.
> The relevant line is here: [https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/a939a7d0fd9c6b23c879cbee05275c6fbc939e38/common/network-common/src/main/java/org/apache/spark/network/util/TransportConf.java#L220]
> GCM is relatively more computationally expensive than CTR and adds a 16-byte block of authentication tag data to each payload.
