mcgilman commented on issue #4099: NIFI-7170: Add option to disable anonymous authentication URL: https://github.com/apache/nifi/pull/4099#issuecomment-594581175 There is no code that prevents a user with the identity of `anonymous`. From an authorization perspective, the authorizer should be checking whether the user is anonymous [1] which is ultimately driven by [2]. The fact that a real user could have an identity of `anonymous` should still be ok. Let me know if I'm missing something. Thanks for the review!
