> Sentry doesn't check URI effectiveness when executing GRANT commands on Hive, even though it requires full URI path in HDFS.
> GRANT is allowing users to provide any invalid URI paths, like below:
> {noformat}
> GRANT ALL ON URI "hdfs://hdfs://localhost:8020:8020///tmp/myjar.jar" TO ROLE role1"
> {noformat}
> If the user attempts to create a function from the correct URI, then Sentry won't find the URI and it will fail with a permission denied.
> {noformat}
> Error: Error while compiling statement: FAILED: SemanticException No valid privileges
> User sergio does not have privileges for CREATEFUNCTION
> The required privileges: Server=server1->URI=hdfs://localhost:8020/tmp/myjar.jar->action=*; (state=42000,code=40000)
> {noformat}
> I noticed that the Hive/Sentry plugin checks if the URI is normalized during the CREATE FUNCTION command. If not, it will skip it and continue with other available URI.
> I think we should apply the same normalization check during the GRANT to at least alert the user that URI might be wrong.
