Summary: SQL Injection in TxnHandler#enqueueLockWithRetry
Key: HIVE-22073
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-22073
Project: Hive
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 3.1.1
Reporter: Piotr Findeisen
The {{org.apache.hadoop.hive.metastore.txn.TxnHandler#enqueueLockWithRetry}}
method gets called for Thrift {{lock}} API call with input passed from the user.
Within that method there is SQL injection possible:
[https://github.com/apache/hive/blob/774a8ef7a6e92c8a43cad2fa66bd944e666f75f0/standalone-metastore/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hive/metastore/txn/TxnHandler.java#L1987-L1991]
for example, when partition name contains an apostrophe.
Impact:
* vulnerability: privilege escalation possible
* availability: user cannot query ACID table where string/varchar partition
key contains an apostrophe
