Egil Sorensen resolved HCATALOG-433.
------------------------------------
Resolution: Invalid
Vandana determined that this is actually an issue in Hive, and she will open a
ticket in Hive.
FYI,
If hive.semantic.analyzer.hook is set to
org.apache.hcatalog.cli.SemanticAnalysis.HCatSemanticAnalyzer then the user
will correctly get an error trying to do the show tables or describe table.
> user can describe table though no rights given; using
> HdfsAuthorizationProvider

> With hive.security.authorization.manager set to HdfsAuthorizationProvider
