Srikanth Srungarapu commented on HBASE-13235:
---------------------------------------------
For the following methods in AccessController, the params and acl check scope
are not identical.
* preCreateTable
* preCreateNamespace
* preDeleteNamespace
* preModifyNamespace
* preAddColumn
And also, default namespace is not being shown in table names. Attached patch
addresses this issue.
> Revisit the security auditing semantics.

> More specifically, the following things need a closer look. (Will include
> more based on feedback and/or suggestions)
> * Table name (say test) instead of fully qualified table name(default:test)
> being used.
> * Right now, we're using the scope to be similar to arguments for operation.
> Would be better to decouple the arguments for operation and scope involved in
> checking. For e.g. say for createTable, we have the following audit log
> {code}
> Access denied for user esteban; reason: Insufficient permissions; remote
> address: /10.20.30.1; request: createTable; context: (user=srikanth@XXX,
> scope=default, action=CREATE)
> {code}
> The scope was rightly being used as default namespace, but we're missing out
> the information like operation params for CREATE which we used to log prior
> to HBASE-12511.
> Would love to hear inputs on this!
