Status: Open (was: Patch Available)
> WebHCatJTShim23 ignores security/user context
> ---------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HIVE-5635
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-5635
> Project: Hive
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: WebHCat
> Affects Versions: 0.12.0
> Reporter: Eugene Koifman
> Assignee: Eugene Koifman
> Attachments: HIVE-5635.2.patch, HIVE-5635.patch

>
> WebHCatJTShim23 takes UserGroupInformation object as argument (which
> represents the user make the call to WebHCat or doAs user) but ignores.
> WebHCatJTShim20S uses the UserGroupInformation
> This is inconsistent and may be a security hole because in with Hadoop 2 the
> methods on WebHCatJTShim are likely running with 'hcat' as the user context.
