-------------------------------------
Summary: [Column Masking] : Security Loop hole for Columns having
alphanumeric values using "Redact" Masking option
Key: RANGER-5141
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RANGER-5141
Project: Ranger
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Ranger
Affects Versions: 2.4.0
Reporter: Abhishek Jain
Ranger partially exposes the columns having alphanumeric sensitive
values(String DataType) if the column is masked using ranger's column masking
policy with "redact" option.
_+*Steps to Reproduce:*+_
1) Create Hive table and insert data in it.
2) Create Ranger Column Masking Policy on a string type column (with
alphanumeric values) for <testuser> with redact option.
3) Fetch this column using <testuser> user in hive/beeline.
_*With such behaviour, it becomes easier for the un-authorised users i.e
<testuser> to guess these sensitive values of this particular column masked
with "redact" option.*_
