Root Cause Analysis
The vulnerability stems from YARN's file localization preserving original HDFS permissions instead of applying secure defaults. The identified functions are core components of the localization process where:
- LocalCacheProtocolImpl.download() would handle the actual file transfer from HDFS to local FS
- LocalizedResource.localize() coordinates the localization workflow Without seeing the actual patch, these are the most likely candidates based on the vulnerability pattern (CWE-732) and Hadoop architecture. The medium confidence reflects the need to infer implementation details from vulnerability description rather than explicit patch evidence.
