--------------------------------------
Summary: Admin does not convert the AuthorizationException to
fatal error in using bootstrap controllers
Key: KAFKA-18440
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-18440
Project: Kafka
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Chia-Ping Tsai
Assignee: Chia-Ping Tsai
Admin use DescribeClusterRequest to build metadata when using bootstrap
controllers, and controller APIs may return ClusterAuthorizationException when
users have no "ALTER" permission (see
https://github.com/apache/kafka/pull/14306#discussion_r1312367762).
However, admin does not convert the authorized exception to fatal exception
(https://github.com/apache/kafka/blob/trunk/clients/src/main/java/org/apache/kafka/clients/admin/internals/AdminMetadataManager.java#L276),
so it keeps sending the request to controller until timeout.
