-------------------------------------------------
Summary: Quoting changed for username in GRANT statement
Key: CASSANDRA-10135
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-10135
Project: Cassandra
Issue Type: Bug
Components: API
Environment: cassandra 2.2.0
Reporter: Bernhard K. Weisshuhn
Priority: Minor
We may have uncovered an undocumented api change between cassandra 2.1.x and
2.2.0.
When granting permissions to a username containing special characters, 2.1.x
needed single quotes around the username and refused doubles.
2.2.0 needs doubles and refuses singles.
Working example for 2.1.x:
{code:sql}
GRANT SELECT ON ALL KEYSPACES TO
'vault-readonly-root-79840dbb-917e-ed90-38e0-578226e6c1c6-1440017797';
{code}
Enclosing the username in double quotes instead of singles fails with the
following error message:
{quote}
cassandra@cqlsh> GRANT SELECT ON ALL KEYSPACES TO
'vault-readonly-root-79840dbb-917e-ed90-38e0-578226e6c1c6-1440017797';
SyntaxException: <ErrorMessage code=2000 [Syntax error in CQL query]
message="line 1:33 mismatched input
'vault-readonly-root-79840dbb-917e-ed90-38e0-578226e6c1c6-1440017797' expecting
set null (...SELECT ON ALL KEYSPACES TO
["vault-readonly-root-79840dbb-917e-ed90-38e0-578226e6c1c6-144001779]...)">
{quote}
Singles fail in 2.2.0:
{quote}
cassandra@cqlsh> GRANT SELECT ON ALL KEYSPACES TO
'vault-readonly-root-e04e7a84-a7ba-d84f-f3c0-1e50e7590179-1440019308';
SyntaxException: <ErrorMessage code=2000 [Syntax error in CQL query]
message="line 1:33 no viable alternative at input
'vault-readonly-root-e04e7a84-a7ba-d84f-f3c0-1e50e7590179-1440019308'
(...SELECT ON ALL KEYSPACES TO
['vault-readonly-root-e04e7a84-a7ba-d84f-f3c0-1e50e7590179-144001930]...)">
{quote}
... whereas double quotes succeed:
{code:sql}
GRANT SELECT ON ALL KEYSPACES TO
"vault-readonly-root-e04e7a84-a7ba-d84f-f3c0-1e50e7590179-1440019308";
{code}
If this is a deliberate change, I don't think it is reflected in the
documentation. I am temped to consider this a bug introduced with the role
additions.
