MEDIUM 4.3EPSS 1.99%

Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.99%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

In Apache Hive 2.3.3, 3.1.0 and earlier, Hive "EXPLAIN" operation does not check for necessary authorization of involved entities in a query. An unauthorized user can do "EXPLAIN" on arbitrary table or view and expose table metadata and statistics.
