Encryption in ZooKeeper & contrib projects
Melissa Mahasintunan 2011-07-06, 19:28
Sorry to repost, but hoping someone can help with this!
I'm hoping to get a little more information about the encryption functionality, specifically if it is limited to the following functions:
- code limited to encryption of passwords, personal identification numbers, digital signatures, fixed data compression techniques, hashing - decryption (only) of radio or pay TV broadcasts, or for civilian use of mobile radio telephones not capable of "end to end" encryption - decryption specially designed to allow execution of copy-protected software and the decryption function is not user-accessible - cryptographic software specially designed and limited for use on banking (ATM, POS terminals) - personalized smart card software not capable of message traffic encryption of user-supplied or related key management functions - key management designed, restricted, and intended to support only one of the above functions - software designed to protect against malicious computer damage (e.g. Viruses, intrusion detection, etc.) - software tools and technology specifically designed for the development, production, or "use" of one or more of the above software (but limited to those listed above)
Thank you again for your help!
Regards, Melissa

With ZOOKEEPER-938 applied if I'm not mistaken it would be possible to negotiate encryption on the connection as well as authentication (via SASL QoP "auth-conf").

This sounds like an export certification. Don't take what I say as definitive in this regard.

Zookeeper does password encryption and hashing. It is likely that it will adopt standard public key libraries for authentication in the future.
Others can comment on the exact state of encrypted connections to Zookeeper, but it is not standard practice to use them. In the future, it is likely that hashing will be used to authenticate messages. - decryption (only) of radio or pay TV broadcasts, or for civilian use of > mobile radio telephones not capable of "end to end" encryption >

Encryption in ZooKeeper & contrib projects
Melissa Mahasintunan 2011-06-17, 23:27
Hi All,
I am trying to determine if the ZooKeeper package (including the contrib packages) uses encryption, and if so, if that encryption is limited to such things as encryption of passwords, PINs, digital signatures, fixed data compression techniques or hashing.
I know Zookeeper has an access control per user, so a user's password might be encrypted internally. However, it's not documented as far as I know, so I'm not sure. It may even be stored as a plain data.
I've also tried to grep files in the whole package with "crypto" keyword, and found the related information is as follows:
Related keyword: org.apache.zookeeper.inspector.encryption.EncryptionManager /BasicDataEncryptionManager (found in contrib\ZooInspector) This class appears to encrypt/decrypt outside of Zookeeper, and the specific encrypted logic does not seem to be implemented within.
Related keyword: org.apache.bookkeeper.client.MacDigestManager / CRC32DigestManager (found in contrib\bookkeeper) This class does seem to include encryption logic, but I'm not sure if the functions are limited to those I've listed above.
Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you in advance!
Regards, Melissa

I think that the basic answer is no.
Encryption is used in authentication, but not in communications. Of course, you can do magic tunnel things to provide encryption, but ZK doesn't do it by itself.
