RE: Another Question on Authority and Security

Kevin,  

in all cases ... when you execute my_procedure you will see privileges as user_a ... because unless you use invoker's rights, the procedure will inherit privileges of the schema owner. User_b/c can compile just because they have privilege, nothing less, nothing more.

Given:
  User_A Owns procedure 'MY_PROCEDURE'.
  User_B originally compiles procedure ''USER_A.MY_PROCEDURE", thereby allowing 'MY_PROCEDURE" to be able to do whatever User_B can.   User_C recompiles "USER_A.MY_PROCEDURE" by issuing the "ALTER PROCEDURE USER_A.MY_PROCEDURE COMPILE;" command.  

Question:
  Is procedure "USER_A.MY_PROCEDURE" now able to do whatever User C can do instead of User B ?? Or does it retain the authority from User_B instead.  

Thanks  

Kevin
