--------------------------------------
Summary: Ensure authoritative security coprocessors execute in the
correct context
Key: HBASE-14686
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-14686
Project: HBase
Issue Type: Umbrella
Reporter: Andrew Purtell
In deployments using security coprocessors, those using preXXX hooks expect to
make authoritative decisions with all information available to them in the
execution context including the request user. Where users can issue requests in
a RPC context separate from the context where the work will be performed, we
need to carry the request user's credentials through up to the coprocessor
upcall once we finally make it.
This has been an occasional issue as various parts of the code are refactored.
Revisit again.
