------------------------------------
Summary: 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
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.
