Marcelo Vanzin commented on SPARK-3883:
---------------------------------------

FYI, any PR here should make sure the default configuration is safe against the 
"POODLE" attack (https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2014-3566). Here's 
something for Jetty:

> Provide SSL support for Akka and HttpServer based connections

>                 Key: SPARK-3883
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-3883
>             Project: Spark
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Spark Core
>            Reporter: Jacek Lewandowski
>
> Spark uses at least 4 logical communication channels:
> 1. Control messages - Akka based
> 2. JARs and other files - Jetty based (HttpServer)
> 3. Computation results - Java NIO based
> 4. Web UI - Jetty based
> The aim of this feature is to enable SSL for (1) and (2).
> Why:
> Spark configuration is sent through (1). Spark configuration may contain 
> sensitive information like credentials for accessing external data sources or 
> streams. Application JAR files (2) may include the application logic and 
> therefore they may include information about the structure of the external 
> data sources, and credentials as well.
