------------------------------------------

             Summary: HttpServer#hasAdminAccess should return false if authorization is enabled but user is not authenticated
                 Key: HADOOP-8314
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-8314
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: security
    Affects Versions: 2.0.0, 3.0.0
            Reporter: Alejandro Abdelnur
            Assignee: Alejandro Abdelnur
             Fix For: 2.0.0
         Attachments: HADOOP-8314.patch

If the user is not authenticated (request.getRemoteUser() returns NULL) or there is not authentication filter configured (thus returning also NULL), hasAdminAccess should return false. Note that a filter could allow anonymous access, thus the first case.
