> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDDS-15467
> Project: Apache Ozone
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Ivan Andika
> Priority: Major
>
> Found a possible security issue where OmClientRequest#getUserInfoNotExists
> might user an admin user (OM starter user) privilege if the client does not
> specify any user info. I don't think normal clients will gain admin user
> currently since both Hadoop RPC and gRPC clients should already have the user
> info. However, I think it's best to be defensive and for getUserInfoNotExists
> to not fallback to the admin user since if we make any changes in getUserInfo
> that causes userInfo's remoteAddress and userInfo's username to not be set,
> it might cause cause privilege escalations.
