                 Key: HIVE-2079
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-2079
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Metastore, Security
            Reporter: Devaraj Das
            Assignee: Mac Yang
             Fix For: 0.8.0


The warehouse directory is created with a permissions of 777. This is to allow 
any user to successfully create database/table directories there. The security 
issue is that anyone can delete any directory in the warehouse. We should fix 
this hole.
