Yip Ng commented on DERBY-1330:
-------------------------------

It seems that the getTablePermissions( UUID ) method in DataDictionaryImpl 
might be problematic.
This method is called when the dependency manager needs to get a dependable via 
its provider id. (tableperms id)
(i.e.:  getPersistentProviderInfos() of the dependency manager)

In getTablePermissions(UUID), the TablePermsDescriptor constructor will set its 
member vars grantee and TableUUID 
to null since the row in sys.systableperms can be located via tablePermsUUID 
(instead of tableUUID, grantor and grantee).  But during getPermissions() 
processing, the hashCode() of the TablePermsDescriptor will be invoked by the 
permissionCache which eventually will lead to a call to grantee.hashCode(); 
thus, resulting in NullPointerException.


public TablePermsDescriptor getTablePermissions( UUID tablePermsUUID) throws 
StandardException {
    TablePermsDescriptor key = new TablePermsDescriptor( this, tablePermsUUID);
    return (TablePermsDescriptor) getPermissions( key);
}

> Additional work needs to be done for grant/revoke to make sure that only 
> users with required privileges can access various database objects. In order 
> to do that, first we need to collect the privilege requirements for various 
> database objects and store them in SYS.SYSREQUIREDPERM. Once we have this 
> information then when a user tries to access an object, the required 
> SYS.SYSREQUIREDPERM privileges for the object will be checked against the 
> user privileges in SYS.SYSTABLEPERMS, SYS.SYSCOLPERMS and 
> SYS.SYSROUTINEPERMS. The database object access will succeed only if the user 
> has the necessary privileges.
> SYS.SYSTABLEPERMS, SYS.SYSCOLPERMS and SYS.SYSROUTINEPERMS are already 
> populated by Satheesh's work on DERBY-464. But SYS.SYSREQUIREDPERM doesn't 
> have any information in it at this point and hence no runtime privilege 
> checking is getting done at this point.
