[jira] [Commented] (YARN-5115) Security risk by using CONTENT-DISPOSITION header

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-5115?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15291905#comment-15291905 ] 

Xuan Gong commented on YARN-5115:
---------------------------------

Trivial patch to simply remove CONTENT-DISPOSITION header in NMWebSerivce/AHSWebService.

> 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:
> {code}
> 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.
