TupleProtocol#writeBitSet unintentionally writes a variable length byte array
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: THRIFT-1365
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-1365
Project: Thrift
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Java - Compiler, Java - Library
Reporter: Bryan Duxbury
Assignee: Bryan Duxbury
Fix For: 0.8
BitSet.length() only returns the highest-set-bit, meaning that if you have more
than 8 optional fields, and the 9+th optional field is unset, then only the
first byte's worth of bits will be serialized. This leads to a problem on the
read side, where the bit vector is assumed to be fixed width, and arbitrary
deserialization occurs.
