When deleting a snapshot that contains the last record of a given INode, the fsimage may become corrupt because the create list of the snapshot diff in the previous snapshot and the child list of the parent INodeDirectory are not cleaned.

Apache HBase

The ReplicationCleaner process can abort if its connection to ZooKeeper is inconsistent

Bug: HBASE-15234

If the connection with ZooKeeper is inconsistent, the ReplicationCleaner may abort, and the following event is logged by the HMaster:

WARN org.apache.hadoop.hbase.replication.master.ReplicationLogCleaner: Aborting ReplicationLogCleaner
because Failed to get list of replicators

Unprocessed WALs accumulate.

The seekBefore() method calculates the size of the previous data block by assuming that data blocks are contiguous, and HFile v2 and higher store Bloom blocks and leaf-level INode blocks with the data. As a result, reverse scans do not work when Bloom blocks or leaf-level INode blocks are present when HFile v2 or higher is used.

Workaround: Restart the HMaster occasionally. The ReplicationCleaner restarts if necessary and process the unprocessed WALs.

Issues Fixed in CDH 5.5.2

Known Issues Fixed

The following topics describe known issues fixed in CDH 5.5.2.

Apache Spark

Spark SQL cannot retrieve data from a partitioned Hive table

When reading from a partitioned Hive table, Spark SQL is not able to identify the column delimiter used, and reads the full record as the first column entry.

Cloudera Bug: CDH-37189

Workaround: None.

When using Spark on YARN, the driver reports misleading error messages
The Spark driver reports misleading error messages such as:
ERROR ErrorMonitor: AssociationError [akka.tcp://sparkDriver@...] ->
[akka.tcp://sparkExecutor@...]: Error [Association failed with [akka.tcp://sparkE xecutor@...]]
[akka.remote.EndpointAssociationException: Association failed with [akka.tcp://sparkExecutor@...]]

Cloudera Bug: CDH-33949

Workaround: Add the following property to the Spark log4j configuration file: log4j.logger.org.apache.spark.rpc.akka.ErrorMonitor=FATAL. See Configuring Spark Application Logging Properties.

Spark does not support rolling upgrades

Spark does not support rolling upgrades. Submitted Spark jobs may fail during upgrade. Jobs requiring new configuration properties will fail.

Cloudera Bug: CDH-33655

Workaround: Finish the upgrade, and then relaunch the Spark jobs.

Hue

Cannot query the customers table in Hue

To query the customers table, you must re-create the Parquet data for compatibility.

Bug: HUE-3040

Cloudera Bug: CDH-33974

Workaround: Update the parquet file of the customers table (/user/hive/warehouse/customers/customers) with the one attached to HUE-3040.

Issues Fixed in CDH 5.5.1

The following issues have been fixed in CDH 5.5.1:

Apache Commons Collections deserialization vulnerability

Cloudera has learned of a potential security vulnerability in a third-party library called the Apache Commons Collections. This library is used in products distributed and supported by Cloudera (“Cloudera Products”), including core Apache Hadoop. The Apache Commons Collections library is also in widespread use beyond the Hadoop ecosystem. At this time, no specific attack vector for this vulnerability has been identified as present in Cloudera Products.

In an abundance of caution, we are currently in the process of incorporating a version of the Apache Commons Collections library with a fix into the Cloudera Products. In most cases, this will require coordination with the projects in the Apache community. One example of this is tracked by HADOOP-12577.

The Apache Commons Collections potential security vulnerability is titled “Arbitrary remote code execution with InvokerTransformer” and is tracked by COLLECTIONS-580. MITRE has not issued a CVE, but related CVE-2015-4852 has been filed for the vulnerability. CERT has issued Vulnerability Note #576313 for this issue.

Bug: HIVE-11834

Cloudera Bug: CDH-31566

DROP PARTITION in encrypted zone does not remove data from HDFS

An ALTER TABLE query to DROP PARTITION removes the partition metadata from HDFS but not the data.

Bug: HIVE-10910

Cloudera Bug: CDH-29014

DROP TABLE with qualified table name ignores database name when checking partitions

DDLTask.dropTable() uses an older version of Hive.getPartitionNames(), which takes in a single string for the table name, instead of the database and table names.

Bug: HIVE-10421

Cloudera Bug: CDH-31183

INSERT INTO statement may expose data that should be encrypted

INSERT INTO <table> VALUES() uses a temporary table; the data in temporary tables is stored under hive.exec.scratchdir which is not usually encrypted.

Bug: HIVE-10658

Cloudera Bug: CDH-29235

Whitelist restrictions do not get initialized in new copy of HiveConf

Whitelist restrictions use a regex pattern in HiveConf, but when a new HiveConf object copy is created, the regex pattern is not initialized in the new HiveConf copy.

Bug: HIVE-10465

HiveServer2 leaks Hive Metastore Connections

HiverServer2 uses threadlocal to cache Hive Metastore (HMS) Thrift client in class Hive. When the thread dies, the HMS client does not close. So the connection to the HMS client leaks.

Bug: HIVE-10956

Cloudera Bug: CDH-28441

Bug: HIVE-10006

Cloudera Bug: CDH-26327

Replication factor is not properly set in SparkHashTableSinkOperator

The default replication factors (3) affects the Map Join performance of small files.

Bug: HIVE-11109

Cloudera Bug: CDH-28903

Hive LDAP Authenticator should allow users to set Domain without the base Distinguished Name

When the base distinguished name (DN) is not configured but only the Domain has been set in hive-site.xml, the LDAP authentication provider cannot locate the user in the directory. Authentication fails in such cases.

Bug: HIVE-12007

Cloudera Bug: CDH-23561

Hive should support additional LDAP authentication parameters

Currently, Hive only has the following authenticator parameters for LDAP authentication for HiveServer2:
<property>
  <name>hive.server2.authentication</name>
  <value>LDAP</value>
</property>
<property>
  <name>hive.server2.authentication.ldap.url</name>
  <value>ldap://our_ldap_address</value>
</property>
Other LDAP properties need to be included as part of Hive-LDAP authentication, for example:
group search base -> dc=domain,dc=com
group search filter -> member={0}
user search base -> dc=domain,dc=com
user search filter -> sAMAAccountName={0}
list of valid user groups -> group1,group2,group3 

Bug: HIVE-7193

Cloudera Bug: CDH-31454

Aggregate functions used as window functions can fail in various ways

  • HIVE-11817, CDH-28903: Window function max() fails with NullPointerException.
  • HIVE-10702, CDH-31128: COUNT(*) over windowing x preceding and y preceding returns unexpected results.
  • HIVE-10826, CDH-31958: Support min()/max() functions over x preceding and y preceding windowing.

Apache Spark

Attempts to access secure HBase from Spark executors fail when authenticating to the metastore.

An exception like the following occurs when you attempt to access kerberized HBase instance from a Spark executor.
GSSException: No valid credentials provided
(Mechanism level: Failed to find any Kerberos tgt)
The root cause is that the HBase Kerberos authentication token is not sent to the Spark executor.

Bug: SPARK-6918

Workaround: None.

The shuffle service fails on NodeManager restarts and kills all running Spark applications

In CDH 5.4.0 through CDH 5.4.4, the shuffle service is on by default. Because it fails in NodeManager restarts, in CDH 5.4.5, and higher, the shuffle service is off by default. Dynamic allocation requires that the shuffle service be turned on.

Bug: SPARK-9439

Cloudera Bug: CDH-29772

Workaround: In CDH 5.4.5 and higher, enable the shuffle service when using dynamic allocation.

Spark not automatically picking up hive-site.xml

When you run Spark on YARN, the client hive-site.xml does not get picked up automatically by spark-submit.

Bug: SPARK-2669

Cloudera Bug: CDH-23780

Workaround: Do one of the following, depending on which deployment mode you are running in:
  • Client - set HADOOP_CONF_DIR to /etc/hive/conf/ (or the directory where hive-site.xml is located).
  • Cluster - add --files=/etc/hive/conf/hive-site.xml (or the path for hive-site.xml) to the spark-submit script.

Apache Sentry (incubating)

Synchronize calls in SentryClient and create Sentry client once per request in SimpleDBProvider

Adds proper locking to the SentryClient and reduces the number of SentryClients created within a single request in the SimpleDbProvider (used by Hive). This fixes issues that may have caused transient permission failures and out of memory conditions.

Bug: SENTRY-893

Sentry-HDFS sync events should treat database and table names as case-insensitive

Sentry-HDFS Sync was treating database and table names as case-sensitive. This led to incorrect or missing ACLs being applied as part of the sync operation if the DDL operations used a different case for the catalog objects.

Bug: SENTRY-885

Hive drop database operation removes the Sentry privileges, even if drop operation fails

Even if the Hive drop database operation fails, the Sentry privileges on that database will be removed.

Bug: SENTRY-669

Nested queries in Hive on views incorrectly enforce base table privileges instead of view privileges

Nested queries in Hive on views incorrectly enforce base table privileges instead of view privileges. This leads to to Hive query failures due to insufficient privileges.

Bug: SENTRY-619

Apache ZooKeeper

BinaryInputArchive readString should check length before allocating memory

This fixed a possible OutOfMemoryError when malformed packets were sent to the ZooKeeper server.

Bug: ZOOKEEPER-2146

Cloudera Bug: CDH-25733

Workaround:Upgrade to CDH 5.5.

Cloudera Search

The GoLive Function Does not Support Running As a Configurable User

After using --go-live mode with the MapReduceIndexerTool and HBaseMapReduceIndexerTool, depending on group mappings and the configured HDFS umask, Solr may not have been able to read the results of the indexing job.

With Search for CDH 5.5 and later, the MapReduceIndexerTool and HBaseMapReduceIndexerTool includes updated --go-live functionality. The indexers now automatically update HDFS ACLs for the specified output directory, giving Solr permission to read the indexer results.

See MapReduceIndexerTool and HBaseMapReduceIndexerTool for more information.

Bug: None.

Workaround: Do not use the --golive mode with MapReduceIndexerTool and HBaseMapReduceIndexerTool or use a less restrictive umask.

MapReduceIndexerTool fails to Index Documents When Sentry Is Enabled

Prior to CDH 5.5, when Sentry was enabled, the MapReduceIndexerTool was unable to index data even if the user was authorized to write to the collection according to Sentry permissions. This limitation occurred because, by default, the MapReduceIndexerTool used the underlying collection's solrconfig.xml from ZooKeeper to build the index using its EmbeddedSolrServers. But the embedded servers are not properly configured to use Sentry, so this process failed.

With Search for CDH 5.5, the MapReduceIndexerTool uses a default solrconfig.xml that is appropriate for the vast majority of collection configurations. With this configuration, the MapReduceIndexerTool is able to index data, even if Sentry is enabled. Note that this default configuration does not include any updateRequestProcessorChains; if your configuration requires an updateRequestProcessorChain, you can tell the MapReduceIndexerTool to use the configuration from ZooKeeper by specifying --use-zk-solrconfig.xml or from local disk by specifying --solr-home-dir.

Bug: None.

Workaround: To address this issue, configure the MapReduceIndexerTool to run without Sentry restrictions. This does not compromise security because this only affects the "embedded" Solr Servers in the job that are used to build the offline index; Solr's Sentry permissions are still checked when the data is merged into the cluster via --go-live.

Here are two ways to enable indexing:

  1. If your environment uses the default configuration files, use solrconfig.xml for indexing jobs, rather than solrconfig.xml.secure. Use the --solr-home-diroption to specify the directory containing solrconfig.xml, causing the job to run with Sentry disabled.
  2. Alternately, you can comment out the following line:
    <str name="update.chain">updateIndexAuthorization</str>

    This line must be commented out and the change saved in the solrconfig file used by the machine running the indexing job.
