Granting Rights on Stored Procedure to another user of Oracle

Question

I am a student of Undergraduate studies , and I am facing little problem in granting rights of ownership to a user A to a stored procedure being owned by user B in database

Answer 1

Packages and stored procedures in Oracle execute by default using the rights of the package/procedure OWNER, not the currently logged on user.

So if you call a package that creates a user for example, its the package owner, not the calling user that needs create user privilege. The caller just needs to have execute permission on the package.

If you would prefer that the package should be run using the calling user's permissions, then when creating the package you need to specify AUTHID CURRENT_USER

Oracle documentation "Invoker Rights vs Definer Rights" has more information http://docs.oracle.com/cd/A97630_01/appdev.920/a96624/08_subs.htm#18575

Hope this helps.
