AUTH bypasses join requests without auth_headers ------------------------------------------------ Key: JGRP-1661 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JGRP-1661 Project: JGroups Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 3.3.3 Reporter: Sergey Tumashov Assignee: Bela Ban Fix For: 3.3.4, 3.4 The cluster coordinator allows new members to join the cluster if their join requests do not contain auth headers. A simple test case would involve two nodes. One node should be configured to use a protocol stack with AUTH. The other node should use the same stack but with AUTH excluded. The node that uses AUTH needs to be brought up first so it can become cluster coordinator. The second node will now successfully join the cluster even though it does not send any auth tokens along with its join requests.
