Ted Yu created KAFKA-5863:
-----------------------------
Summary: Potential null dereference in
DistributedHerder#reconfigureConnector()
Key: KAFKA-5863
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-5863
Project: Kafka
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Ted Yu
Priority: Minor
Here is the call chain:
{code}
RestServer.httpRequest(reconfigUrl, "POST",
taskProps, null);
{code}
In httpRequest():
{code}
} else if (responseCode >= 200 && responseCode < 300) {
InputStream is = connection.getInputStream();
T result = JSON_SERDE.readValue(is, responseFormat);
{code}
For readValue():
{code}
public <T> T readValue(InputStream src, TypeReference valueTypeRef)
throws IOException, JsonParseException, JsonMappingException
{
return (T) _readMapAndClose(_jsonFactory.createParser(src),
_typeFactory.constructType(valueTypeRef));
{code}
Then there would be NPE in constructType():
{code}
public JavaType constructType(TypeReference<?> typeRef)
{
// 19-Oct-2015, tatu: Simpler variant like so should work
return _fromAny(null, typeRef.getType(), EMPTY_BINDINGS);
{code}
