["Don Bosco Durai (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RANGER-738?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15022630#comment-15022630 ] 

Don Bosco Durai commented on RANGER-738:
----------------------------------------

[~scottgray1], thanks for your suggestions. Would it be more like UDF? Ranger restricts who can upload UDFs, similar are you suggesting we should restrict/allow who can execute TRANSFORM statement?

Thanks

> The TRANFORM statement in Hive is a big security hole with Hive run without impersonation, so when SQL Standard Authorization is enabled, the feature id completely disabled which is a bit of a sledgehammer approach to securing this statement.
> Sentry added support for restricting this statement at a per-user/group level, which should be adopted by Ranger.
