View the Exhibit and examine the privileges granted to the SL_REP user. The EMP table is owned by the SCOTT user. The SL_REP user executes the following command: SQL> GRANT SELECT ON scott.emp TO…

The GRANT ANY OBJECT PRIVILEGE system privilege allows SL_REP to grant any object privilege on any schema object in the database, including objects owned by other users like SCOTT's EMP table, so the command completes successfully without error.

Ownership of the table is irrelevant when the granting user holds GRANT ANY OBJECT PRIVILEGE, which overrides the normal ownership requirement for granting privileges.

Having GRANT ANY OBJECT PRIVILEGE is precisely what enables the command to succeed, not a cause for failure - it is a valid system-level authorization.

SL_REP does not need the SELECT privilege WITH GRANT OPTION because GRANT ANY OBJECT PRIVILEGE provides a broader system-level right to grant object privileges on any object in any schema.
