Load Balancing Provider Fails to invalidate Cache on Key Delete


The KMS Load balancing Provider has not been correctly invalidating the cache on key delete operations. The failure to invalidate the cache on key delete operations can result in the possibility that data can be leaked from the framework for a short period of time based on the value of the hadoop.kms.current.key.cache.timeout.ms property. Its default value is 30,000ms. When the KMS is deployed in an HA pattern the KMSLoadBalancingProvider class will only send the delete operation to one KMS role instance in a round-robin fashion. The code lacks a call to invalidate the cache across all instances and can leave key information including the metadata and key stored (the deleted key) in the cache on one or more KMS instances up to the key cache timeout.
