[jira] [Commented] (HDFS-4401) Fix bug in DomainSocket path validation

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-4401?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13553306#comment-13553306 ] 

Todd Lipcon commented on HDFS-4401:
-----------------------------------

+1. I tested this locally by verifying that '/tmp/dn-sock' is no longer allowed, but a valid path like '/home/todd/dn-sock' works fine.

> DomainSocket path validation currently does not validate the second-to-last path component.  This leads to insecure socket paths being accepted.  It should validate all path components prior to the final one.
