Andrew Purtell commented on HBASE-10883: ---------------------------------------- Well, you do have to change the current regexp somehow because it will match the empty string and that's not valid. > Restrict the universe of labels and authorizations > -------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-10883 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-10883 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Improvement > Affects Versions: 0.98.1 > Reporter: Andrew Purtell > Fix For: 0.99.0, 0.98.2 > > Attachments: HBASE-10883.patch > > > Currently we allow any string as visibility label or request authorization. > However as seen on HBASE-10878, we accept for authorizations strings that > would not work if provided as labels in visibility expressions. We should > throw an exception at least in cases where someone tries to define or use a > label or authorization including visibility expression operators '&', '|', > '!', '(', ')'. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
