Thejas M Nair updated HIVE-8408:
--------------------------------
Attachment: HIVE-8408.1.patch
Hcat does an additional layer of authorization checks using the current
authorizer configured for hive cli. It is designed keeping storage based
authorization provider in client side in mind.
It does not make sense for it to try and use V2 api based authorizers (storage
based authorization in client side uses the v1 api).
> hcat cli throws NPE when authorizer using new api is enabled

> throws a NPE as it checks only for the old api based authorization
