             Summary: [Admin] Use stronger salt for service password 
encryption/decryption
                 Key: RANGER-5503
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RANGER-5503
             Project: Ranger
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: admin
            Reporter: Vikas Kumar
            Assignee: Vikas Kumar


Ranger uses FIPS algorithm to encrypt/decrypt the service password and there it 
needs to generate the salt.

In PasswordUtils.java, Although it is generating the sufficient length salt but 
using only the number of bits equals to salt bye[] length.

This is working but it would be cryptographically better to use sufficient 
length salt.
