Miklos Szegedi commented on YARN-7590:
--------------------------------------
[~eyang], I figured it out.
{code}
char *local_path = "target";
{code}
This path is incomplete. We should use {{TEST_ROOT "target"}} to follow the
standard (see the function above this line) and let's do an mkdirs() to make
sure it exists and the test can be run from any directory. That caused the
failure on my test machine.

> There is minimum check for prefix path for container-executor. If YARN is
> compromised, attacker can use container-executor to change system files
> ownership:
> {code}
> /usr/local/hadoop/bin/container-executor spark yarn 0 etc /home/yarn/tokens
> /home/spark / ls
> {code}
> This will change /etc to be owned by spark user:
> {code}
> # ls -ld /etc
> drwxr-s---. 110 spark hadoop 8192 Nov 21 20:00 /etc
> {code}
> Spark user can rewrite /etc files to gain more access. We can improve this
> with additional check in container-executor:
> # Make sure the prefix path is owned by the same user as the caller to
> container-executor.
> # Make sure the log directory prefix is owned by the same user as the caller.
