[jira] [Commented] (HBASE-9182) In secure mode CLI "list" command throws a security exception for non-admin users

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-9182?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13735451#comment-13735451 ]

---------------------------------------

bq. One proposal to fix this is to provide an API in HMaster which returns a list of table names only.

+1 - Shall I work something up?

> HBASE-8692, prevents users retrieving table descriptors they don't have admin access to. As a side-effect it also prevents non-admin users from being able to list tables in the CLI. One proposal to fix this is to provide an API in HMaster which returns a list of table names only.
