[jira] [Created] (SENTRY-2352) User roles with ALTER on a table can not show or describe the table on which they have ALTER

Sergio Peña created SENTRY-2352:
-----------------------------------

             Summary: User roles with ALTER on a table can not show or describe the table on which they have ALTER
                 Key: SENTRY-2352
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SENTRY-2352
             Project: Sentry
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Sentry
    Affects Versions: 2.0.0
            Reporter: Sergio Peña


A user with ALTER on a table in a database, doesn't see the table when they execute SHOW TABLES in that database.

Also, the user with ALTER on a table in that database, can't execute DESCRIBE on that table.

For the alter privilege to be useful, a user will want to be able to see the table that they have the privilege on, and be able to describe that table.
