--------------------------------------
Summary: Implement JWT support
Key: IMPALA-10489
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-10489
Project: IMPALA
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Backend, Clients
Affects Versions: Impala 4.0
Reporter: Joe McDonnell
JWT support entails:
# Reading the JWT out of the HTTP Header
# Verifying the JWT's signature
# Getting the username out of the JWT contents
For #1, we can assume that it comes in via the Authorization: Bearer header. If
this is not uniform, this may need to be configurable.
For #2, we need the public key of the entity that produced the JWT. This will
need to be passed in at startup.
For #3, there is no standardized name for the username field on a JWT. This
should be configurable.
Subsequent tasks may provide other ways to specify the public key and parse out
other pieces of information from the JWT.
