Hi,

If object privileges granted to the PUBLIC role in an Oracle database are assigned with the WITH GRANT OPTION, is it possible to revoke/ the WITH GRANT OPTION?

I do not understand why object privileges assigned to PUBLIC would require this specific configuration? Can somebody clarify this for me?

Thanks in advance.

you don't need to grant the WITH GRANT OPTION when you are granting privileges.you can just use:

GRANT privileges on OBJECT_NAME TO user_name.

You can't revoke ONLY the grant option. You have to revoke the whole privilege and re-grant it without the grant option.
