Naveen Gangam commented on HIVE-25349: -------------------------------------- [~gopalv] what if we added a new hive config parameter whose value is a header name that HS2 should trust. When set to "" (the default), it would be behave as today but when this config is set to a header value, it trusts this header is set by a frontend that has done the authentication. Would this address your concern?
