[jira] [Created] (HIVE-5635) WebHCatJTShim23 ignores security/user context

Eugene Koifman created HIVE-5635:
------------------------------------

             Summary: WebHCatJTShim23 ignores security/user context
                 Key: HIVE-5635
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-5635
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: WebHCat
    Affects Versions: 0.12.0
            Reporter: Eugene Koifman
            Assignee: Eugene Koifman


WebHCatJTShim23 takes UserGroupInformation object as argument (which represents the user make the call to WebHCat or doAs user) but ignores.

WebHCatJTShim20S uses the UserGroupInformation

This is inconsistent and may be a security hole because in with Hadoop 2 the  methods on WebHCatJTShim are likely running with 'hcat' as the user context.
