Gopinathan A commented on HBASE-6253: ------------------------------------- Sorry Ted.. I have not run the Security related tests. Your right acl table creation will be failed in this case :( My main intention to avoid user to perform disable/drop acl table. I think we can set setMetaFlags as true in HTableDescriptor constructor for _acl_ table also (like ROOT & META). This will solve the table creation problem. > isLegalTableName API should check for the _acl_ table name > ---------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-6253 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-6253 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 0.94.0 > Reporter: Gopinathan A > Fix For: 0.94.1 > > Attachments: HBASE-6253.patch > > > Currently HTableDescriptor.isLegalTableName API doesn't check for the _acl_ > table name, due to this user can able to disable/enable/drop/create the acl > table. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
