The Apache Software Foundation provides support for the Apache community of open-source software projects.
The Apache projects are characterized by a collaborative, consensus based development process, an open and
pragmatic software license, and a desire to create high quality software that leads the way in its field.
We consider ourselves not simply a group of projects sharing a server, but rather a community of developers
and users.

Apache Spark supports end-to-end encryption of RPC connections via "spark.authenticate" and "spark.network.crypto.enabled". In versions 3.1.2 and earlier, it uses a bespoke mutual authentication protocol that allows for full encryption key recovery. After an initial interactive attack, this would allow someone to decrypt plaintext traffic offline. Note that this does not affect security mechanisms controlled by "spark.authenticate.enableSaslEncryption", "spark.io.encryption.enabled", "spark.ssl", "spark.ui.strictTransportSecurity". Update to Apache Spark 3.1.3 or later
