Lefty Leverenz commented on HIVE-5400: -------------------------------------- The patch adds {{hive.security.command.whitelist}} & {{hive.conf.restricted.list}} to hive-default.xml.template, but {{hive.conf.restricted.list}} is not documented in the wiki. * Should it be in the wiki? * If so, which release added it? _Trivia:_ both descriptions spell "separated" wrong ("seperated"): <property> + <name>hive.security.command.whitelist</name> + <value>set,reset,dfs,add,delete</value> + <description>Comma seperated list of non-SQL Hive commands users are authorized to execute</description> +</property> + +<property> + <name>hive.conf.restricted.list</name> + <value></value> + <description>Comma seperated list of configuration options which are immutable at runtime</description> +</property> > Allow admins to disable compile and other commands > -------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-5400 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-5400 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Sub-task > Reporter: Brock Noland > Assignee: Brock Noland > Fix For: 0.13.0 > > Attachments: HIVE-5400.patch, HIVE-5400.patch, HIVE-5400.patch > > > From here: > https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-5253?focusedCommentId=13782220&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-13782220 > I think we should afford admins who want to disable this functionality the > ability to do so. Since such admins might want to disable other commands such > as add or dfs, it wouldn't be much trouble to allow them to do this as well. > For example we could have a configuration option "hive.available.commands" > (or similar) which specified add,set,delete,reset, etc by default. Then check > this value in CommandProcessorFactory. It would probably make sense to add > this property to the restrict list. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1#6144)
