Jason Lowe commented on YARN-7197: ---------------------------------- bq. I see that I missed a key point about mounting above parent directory. When the target location is set to another location, the blacklist addictive does not enforce blacklisted path relative to target location. If I'm understanding properly, we need to be worried not only about what host path the user is trying to mount but also _where_ they are trying to mount it within the image? I was under the impression the contents of the image were user-provided. If that's the case then I do not see why the user needs a bind-mount from the host to clobber some path in the image. They could just create the nefarious contents in the image directly. Am I misunderstanding, or do you have an example where it is necessary? bq. Do you agree that by tracking blacklisted path relative location to target location, we can satisfy the original motive of preventing jail break out of container? I thought the point of this JIRA was to prevent exposing sensitive paths on the host to the container so it's inaccessible even if the user gains privilege within the container. It sounds like you're proposing that the blacklist should also prevent those paths in the image from being clobbered by mounts from the host. If the user controls the image contents then I'm not sure that protects us from much. Apologies if I'm misunderstanding what is meant by "relative location to target location." > Add support for a volume blacklist for docker containers > -------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: YARN-7197 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-7197 > Project: Hadoop YARN > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: yarn > Reporter: Shane Kumpf > Assignee: Eric Yang > Attachments: YARN-7197.001.patch, YARN-7197.002.patch, > YARN-7197.003.patch, YARN-7197.004.patch, YARN-7197.005.patch > > > Docker supports bind mounting host directories into containers.
