anmolnar opened a new pull request, #4733:
URL: https://github.com/apache/hbase/pull/4733

   Adds a new SASL mech plugin for OAuthBearer (JWT) authentication. 
   - In order to keep the size of this initial patch manageable, the supported 
workflow is limited: client reads a single JWT token with expiry information 
from environment variable and authenticates with the server. 
   - It works similarly to Hadoop delegation tokens, JWT token takes 
precedence, but if it's missing, the auth provider will fall back to Kerberos.
   - Kerberos must be enabled on the cluster, otherwise HBase security is not 
enabled.
   
   Minimum configuration to enable JWT auth:
   ```
     <property>
       <name>hbase.client.sasl.provider.extras</name>
       
<value>org.apache.hadoop.hbase.security.provider.OAuthBearerSaslClientAuthenticationProvider</value>
     </property>
     <property>
       <name>hbase.server.sasl.provider.extras</name>
       
<value>org.apache.hadoop.hbase.security.provider.OAuthBearerSaslServerAuthenticationProvider</value>
     </property>
     <property>
       <name>hbase.client.sasl.provider.class</name>
       
<value>org.apache.hadoop.hbase.security.provider.OAuthBearerSaslProviderSelector</value>
     </property>
     <property>
       <name>hbase.security.oauth.jwt.jwks.url</name>
       <value>JWKS download url</value>
     </property>
   ```
