Summary: RandomStringUtils#random can enter infinite loop if end parameter is to small Key: LANG-1287 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-1287 Project: Commons Lang Issue Type: Bug Components: lang.* Affects Versions: 3.5 Reporter: Pascal Schumacher Assignee: Pascal Schumacher {quote}I faced that the random method can cause an infinite loop. It can be caused if the end parameter is too low for generating either numbers (< 48) or letters (<65). I added some exception tests to make the cases clear. Basically, if we call the random function with for example numbers = true && end < 48 the validation for Character.isDigit(ch) will fail and we increment count count++.{quote} Ivan Morozov https://github.com/apache/commons-lang/pull/211 -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
