Oggetto: [Fiware-lab-help] Security problem with Hive

Hello,

I was working with a coworker on Cosmos (trying to make Hive queries) and we encounter a security issue.

When we log in to Cosmos, we can only access our own HDFS user space . The problem come from Hive, any user can list every tables existing in the cosmos node , and can query them .

We noticed that when my coworker who didn't remember the exact name of his Hive table launch the command "show table" . He was able to see every tables from any users that exists in Cosmos . We were a little suspicious , so I told him to try to query my own table and it worked. I guess we can then access any tables on your system.

Have you way to fix that? Is there any configuration to make a tables private?

Best regards .
