             Summary: Security risk by using CONTENT-DISPOSITION header
                 Key: YARN-5115
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-5115
             Project: Hadoop YARN
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Xuan Gong


In NMWebService/AHSWebservice, we have used CONTENT-DISPOSITION header for show/download container logs. Looks like it has security risks. And people have devised content-disposition hacking.
The HTTP 1.1 Standard (RFC 2616) also mentions the possible security side effects of content disposition:

15.5 Content-Disposition Issues

   RFC 1806 [35], from which the often implemented Content-Disposition
   (see section 19.5.1) header in HTTP is derived, has a number of very
   serious security considerations. Content-Disposition is not part of
   the HTTP standard, but since it is widely implemented, we are
   documenting its use and risks for implementors. See RFC 2183 [49]
   (which updates RFC 1806) for details.
