Lenni Kuff commented on SENTRY-1087:
------------------------------------

Thanks for updating the patch. A few additional comments:

* getSerdeURI() - It's strange that this returns void. Should this be called 
setSerdeURI() ? Can you also comment someplace what a null serDe URI means 
(seems like it means we skip the authorization checks).
* nit: can separate the check for serdeURIPrivilegesEnabled from the if 
statement in getSerdeURI()? For example:

   if (!serdeURIPrivilegesEnabled) return; 

   if (...)

* startsWith(..) - Can you rename this to something more meaningful? Maybe 
hasPrefixMatch()? 
* Since the checks are at done on the package namespace level, what's stopping 
someone from bypassing security checks by adding a JAR with the same namespace? 
For example: org.apache.hadoop.hive.serde2.UserSerDe?
