--------------------------------------
Summary: Argus Hive authorization to support HiveServe2 only (and
not HiveCLI)
Key: ARGUS-114
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARGUS-114
Project: Argus
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Madhan Neethiraj
Assignee: Ramesh Mani
Currently Argus supports Hive authorization for both Hive CLI and HiveServer2.
Hive CLI comes with a loophole where users can potentially access metastore and
Argus config, giving them access to sensitive data such as Argus audit database.
Moving forward, Argus should only support HiveServer2 for Hive authorization.
Users accessing Hive CLI are protected through permissions at HDFS for
folder/files corresponding to the Hive tables.
