Thejas M Nair created HIVE-6957: ----------------------------------- Summary: SQL authorization does not work with HS2 binary mode and Kerberos auth Key: HIVE-6957 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-6957 Project: Hive Issue Type: Bug Components: Authorization, HiveServer2 Affects Versions: 0.13.0 Reporter: Thejas M Nair Assignee: Thejas M Nair Attachments: HIVE-6957.1.patch
In HiveServer2, when Kerberos auth and binary transport modes are used, the user name that gets passed on to authorization is the long kerberos username. The username that is used in grant/revoke statements tend to be the short usernames. This also fails in authorizing statements that involve URI, as the authorization mode checks the file system permissions for given user. It does not recognize that the given long username actually owns the file or belongs to the group that owns the file. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
