[jira] [Commented] (DERBY-6429) Privilege checks for UPDATE statements are wrong.

["Mamta A. Satoor (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-6429?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13864809#comment-13864809 ] 

Mamta A. Satoor commented on DERBY-6429:
----------------------------------------

It seems like we should mark this jira as not suitable for backport because of compatibility reasons. The privileges required for UPDATE statement with this fix will now be different than those required by previous releases.

> UPDATE statements confuse SELECT and UPDATE privileges. Consider the following SET clause:
>    SET updateColumn = selectColumn
> According to part 2 of the 2011 edition of the SQL Standard, that SET clause requires the following privileges:
> 1) UPDATE privilege on updateColumn. Privileges for the left side of a SET clause are described by section 14.14 (update statement: searched), access rule 1b.
> 2) SELECT privilege on selectColumn. Privileges for the right side of a SET clause are described by section 14.15 (set clause list) and the various productions underneath value expression. In this case, we have a column reference, whose privileges are governed by section 6.7 (column reference), access rule 2.
> However, Derby requires the following:
> 1') UPDATE privilege on both updateColumn and selectColumn
> When we address this bug, we should make corresponding changes to the MERGE statement.
> The following script shows the current behavior:
> connect 'jdbc:derby:memory:db;user=test_dbo;create=true';
> call syscs_util.syscs_create_user( 'TEST_DBO', 'test_dbopassword' );
> call syscs_util.syscs_create_user( 'RUTH', 'ruthpassword' );
> connect 'jdbc:derby:memory:db;shutdown=true';
> connect 'jdbc:derby:memory:db;user=test_dbo;password=test_dbopassword' as dbo;
> create table t1_025
> (
>     a int primary key,
>     updateColumn int,
>     selectColumn int,
>     privateColumn int
> );
> grant update ( updateColumn ) on t1_025 to ruth;
> grant select ( selectColumn ) on t1_025 to ruth;
> insert into t1_025 values ( 1, 100, 1000, 10000 );
> connect 'jdbc:derby:memory:db;user=ruth;password=ruthpassword' as ruth;
> -- correctly succeeds because ruth has UPDATE privilege on updateColumn
> update test_dbo.t1_025 set updateColumn = 17;
> -- the error message incorrectly states that the missing privilege
> -- is UPDATE privilege on privateColumn
> update test_dbo.t1_025 set updateColumn = privateColumn;
> -- incorrectly fails.
> -- ruth does have UPDATE privilege on updateColumn
> -- and SELECT privilege on selectColumn, which should be good enough.
> -- however, the error message incorrectly states that the missing privilege
> -- is UPDATE privilege on selectColumn.
> update test_dbo.t1_025 set updateColumn = selectColumn;
> -- incorrectly succeeds even though ruth does not have SELECT privilege on updateColumn
> update test_dbo.t1_025 set updateColumn = 2 * updateColumn;
> set connection dbo;
> select * from t1_025 order by a;
