> *Test scenario*
> 'xasecure.hive.describetable.showcolumns.authorization.option' set to 'none'
> Database 'testdb' has a table 'testtable1' with 3 columns 'name', 'age', 'city'.
> Hive Policy exists giving user 'hrt_1' 'select' privilege on DB='testdb', table='testtable1' and columns='name', 'age' [user does not have permissions on 'city' column].
> "DESCRIBE testdb.testtable1" and "show columns in testdb.testtable1" commands show results with 'city' column included.
> When 'xasecure.hive.describetable.showcolumns.authorization.option' is set to 'none', Hive would follow default behavior and should deny DESCRIBE table and show column commands as the policy does not grant the test user access to all columns of the table. But the commands go through fine.
