A user may perform an operation through a view if one or more of the following are true:
The appropriate permissions on the view for the operation have been granted to the user by a DBA.
The user has the appropriate permissions on all the objects (such as base tables, views, procedures) for the operation.
The user was granted appropriate permissions for the operation on the view by a non-DBA user. This user must be either the owner of the view or have WITH GRANT OPTION of the appropriate permission(s) on the view. The owner of the view must be either:
a DBA, or
a non-DBA, but also the owner of all the objects referred to by the view, or
a non-DBA, and not the owner of some or all of the objects referred to by the view, but the view owner has SELECT permission WITH GRANT OPTION on the objects not owned and any other required permission(s) WITH GRANT OPTION on the objects not owned for the operation.
Instead of the owner having permission(s) WITH GRANT OPTION on the objects, permission(s) may have been granted to PUBLIC. This includes SELECT permission on system tables.
UPDATE permissions can be granted only on an entire view. Unlike tables, UPDATE permissions cannot be granted on individual columns within a view.
