> The vulnerability is that MR daemons occasionally open files that are located in a path where the user has write access. A malicious user may place a symlink in place of the expected file in order to cause the daemon to instead read another file on the system -- one which the attacker may not naturally be able to access. This includes delegation tokens belong to other users, log files, keytabs, etc.
