Dimitri BEKALE updated CASSANDRA-21784:
---------------------------------------
Bug Category: Parent values: Correctness(12982)
Complexity: Low Hanging Fruit
Discovered By: Code Inspection
Severity: Low
> CQLTester.createIndex() rejects legal quoted index names containing non-word
> characters
> ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CASSANDRA-21784
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-21784
> Project: Apache Cassandra
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Test/unit
> Reporter: Dimitri BEKALE
> Priority: Low
>
> {{CQLTester}} parses {{CREATE INDEX}} statements to record the index name for
> cleanup. The name pattern at
> [CQLTester.java:295|https://github.com/apache/cassandra/blob/b11047097f52482c4d9c48908a294e0ff6b552c4/test/unit/org/apache/cassandra/cql3/CQLTester.java#L295]
> is:
> {code:java}
> private static final String CREATE_INDEX_NAME_REGEX = "(\s*(\w*|\"\w*\")\s*)";
> {code}
> The quoted alternative is {{{}"\w*"{}}}, which admits only word characters
> between the quotes. CQL allows any character except {{"}} inside a quoted
> identifier, with {{""}} as the escape, so legal statements such as:
> {code:java}
> CREATE INDEX "my index" ON ks.t(v)
> CREATE INDEX "a""b" ON ks.t(v)
> {code}
> do not match. A non-match throws at line 1415:
> {code:java}
> Matcher matcher = CREATE_INDEX_PATTERN.matcher(formattedQuery);
> if (!matcher.find())
> throw new IllegalArgumentException("Expected valid create index query but
> found: " + formattedQuery);
> {code}
> so a test that uses such a name fails with {{IllegalArgumentException:
> Expected valid create index query but found: ...}} instead of creating the
> index.
> As a smaller point on the same line, {{matcher.group(2)}} keeps the
> surrounding quotes, so the recorded index name is {{"name"}} rather than
> {{{}name{}}}.
> h3. Impact
> Test infrastructure only; no server behaviour is affected. The cost is that a
> test author using a quoted index name containing a space or punctuation gets
> a misleading parse error from the harness rather than a working index.
> Severity is low.
> h3. Origin and affected branches
> The regex was added by CASSANDRA-13385 ("Delegate utests index name creation
> to CQLTester.createIndex", commit {{{}cff8dadbe853{}}}, 2017-05-08). I
> verified the line on {{trunk}} at {{{}b11047097f52{}}}; it is also present on
> {{{}cassandra-4.0{}}}, {{{}cassandra-4.1{}}}, {{cassandra-5.0,}} and
> {{{}cassandra-6.0{}}}.
> h3. Proposed fix
> Accept any non-quote character, plus the {{""}} escape:
> {code:java}
> - private static final String CREATE_INDEX_NAME_REGEX =
> "(\s*(\w*|\"\w*\")\s*)";
> + private static final String CREATE_INDEX_NAME_REGEX =
> "(\s*(\w+|\"([^\"]|\"\")*\")\s*)";
> {code}
> I have not run Cassandra CI, so I am proposing the change rather than a
> CI-validated patch. If the issue is confirmed I am happy to open a PR against
> the lowest affected branch you nominate and let CI decide.
> h3. Provenance
> This was found during an academic study of LLM-assisted code review at
> Jeonbuk National University, Jeonju, South Korea. An automated LLM-based
> reviewer produced the initial analysis, and I verified it by reading the
> source at {{{}b11047097f52{}}}. I believe it is a genuine, if minor, defect
> and will respect the project's triage either way.
