Description

Background

Pulp's REST API does not have Role Based Access Control and so sensistive credentials, e.g. Remote.password, Remote.client_cert, Remote.client_key for example could be set by one user and read by another.

Solution

Document this very clearly in these places:

  1. Above the changelog in the CHANGES.rst file
  2. To the REST API section of the architecture docs here
  3. To the REST API docs landing page here
  4. At the top of the Authentication page here
