> We are currently performing an extra unnecessary authorization check in the StandardConnectionDAO. The source and destinations were already authorized as part of the phase one (in the two phase commit). The extra check happens to be in phase two and could lead to issues if it fails because a node has reloaded its policies from the configured authorizer.
> This additionally leads to issues when the source or destination component is a port in a RemoteProcessGroup that is self-referencing. This issue caused by NIFI-3155. However, removing the extra checks will resolve this issue NIFI-3155 still needs to be addressed for the reasons described.
