Description Murray McAllister 2014-12-04 00:19:21 EST
The Hadoop 2.5.2 release fixes the following flaw that would allow arbitrary files to be exposed:

""
Vulnerability allows a cluster user to expose private files owned
by the user running the YARN NodeManager process.  The malicious cluster
user can create a public tar archive containing a symlink to a local file
on the node owned by the user running the YARN NodeManager process.  The
permissions of the local file will be changed to be world-readable when the
public archive is localized on the node.
""
