> The code related to this issue is in AccessController.java:permissionGranted().
> When creating audit logs, that method will do one of the following:
> * grant access, create audit log with table name only
> * deny access because of table permission, create audit log with table name only
> * deny access because of column family / qualifier permission, create audit log with specific family / qualifier
> So, in the case where more than one column family and/or qualifier are in the same request, there will be a loss of information. Even in the case where only one column family and/or qualifier is involved, information may be lost.
> It would be better if this behavior consistently included all the information in the request; regardless of access being granted or denied, and regardless which permission caused the denial, the column family and qualifier info should be part of the audit log message.
