Benjamin Mahler commented on MESOS-3560: ---------------------------------------- Why is 'secret' a 'bytes' field? Can it be binary data? If it's enough for the secret to be a UTF-8 string, we should just change from 'bytes' to 'string'. > JSON-based credential files do not work correctly > ------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MESOS-3560 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-3560 > Project: Mesos > Issue Type: Bug > Components: master > Reporter: Michael Park > Assignee: Isabel Jimenez > Labels: mesosphere > Fix For: 0.20.0, 0.21.0, 0.22.0, 0.23.0, 0.24.0 > > > Specifying the following credentials file: > {code} > { > “credentials”: [ > { > “principal”: “user”, > “secret”: “password” > } > ] > } > {code} > Then hitting a master endpoint with: > {code} > curl -i -u “user:password” ... > {code} > Does not work.
