Jason Dere created HIVE-7634: -------------------------------- Summary: Use Configuration.getPassword() if available to eliminate passwords from hive-site.xml Key: HIVE-7634 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-7634 Project: Hive Issue Type: Bug Components: Security Reporter: Jason Dere Assignee: Jason Dere
HADOOP-10607 provides a Configuration.getPassword() API that allows passwords to be retrieved from a configured credential provider, while also being able to fall back to the HiveConf setting if no provider is set up. Hive should use this API for versions of Hadoop that support this API. This would give users the ability to remove the passwords from their Hive configuration files. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
