Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-3017: ------------------------------------------- +1 small limit by default. (That is why I am tagging 3.0.) > add a Message size limit > ------------------------ > > Key: CASSANDRA-3017 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-3017 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Core > Reporter: Jonathan Ellis > Assignee: T Jake Luciani > Priority: Minor > Labels: lhf > Fix For: 3.0 > > Attachments: > 0001-use-the-thrift-max-message-size-for-inter-node-messa.patch, > trunk-3017.txt > > > We protect the server from allocating huge buffers for malformed message with > the Thrift frame size (CASSANDRA-475). But we don't have similar protection > for the inter-node Message objects. > Adding this would be good to deal with malicious adversaries as well as a > malfunctioning cluster participant. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
