Haohui Mai commented on HDFS-5333:
----------------------------------

bq. I was referring to MITM on unsecured network (without proper SSL setup) in 
general ...

This problem happens in the networking layer and it is orthogonal to SOP. 
You'll need to defend against it no matter what UI you're building.

bq. ...turn off javascript and img/embed in their browsers and/or deliberately 
use a text based browser that supports neither, to avoid XSS with 100% 
confidence

Preventing XSS attacks is orthogonal to what you generate the page (either the 
server side or the client side). My previous response has already covered it.
