Johannes Kloos created LUCENE-8667:
--------------------------------------

             Summary: NPE due to missing input checking in ValueSourceParser
                 Key: LUCENE-8667
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-8667
             Project: Lucene - Core
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: core/search
    Affects Versions: master (9.0)
         Environment: h1. Steps to reproduce

* Use a Linux machine.
*  Build commit {{ea2c8ba}} of Solr as described in the section below.
* Build the films collection as described below.
* Start the server using the command {{./bin/solr start -f -p 8983 -s 
/tmp/home}}
* Request the URL given in the bug description.

h1. Compiling the server

{noformat}
git clone https://github.com/apache/lucene-solr
cd lucene-solr
git checkout ea2c8ba
ant compile
cd solr
ant server
{noformat}

h1. Building the collection

We followed [Exercise 
2|http://lucene.apache.org/solr/guide/7_5/solr-tutorial.html#exercise-2] from 
the [Solr Tutorial|http://lucene.apache.org/solr/guide/7_5/solr-tutorial.html]. 
The attached file ({{home.zip}}) gives the contents of folder {{/tmp/home}} 
that you will obtain by following the steps below:

{noformat}
mkdir -p /tmp/home
echo '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?><solr></solr>' > /tmp/home/solr.xml
{noformat}

In one terminal start a Solr instance in foreground:
{noformat}
./bin/solr start -f -p 8983 -s /tmp/home
{noformat}

In another terminal, create a collection of movies, with no shards and no 
replication, and initialize it:

{noformat}
bin/solr create -c films
curl -X POST -H 'Content-type:application/json' --data-binary '{"add-field": 
{"name":"name", "type":"text_general", "multiValued":false, "stored":true}}' 
http://localhost:8983/solr/films/schema
curl -X POST -H 'Content-type:application/json' --data-binary 
'{"add-copy-field" : {"source":"*","dest":"_text_"}}' 
http://localhost:8983/solr/films/schema
./bin/post -c films example/films/films.json
{noformat}

         Attachments: home.zip


Requesting the following URL causes Solr to return an HTTP 500 error response:

{noformat}
http://localhost:8983/solr/films/select?q={!frange%20l=10%20u=100}joindf(genre:comedy,$x)
{noformat}

The error response seems to be caused by the following uncaught exception:

{noformat}
java.lang.NullPointerException

org.apache.lucene.queries.function.valuesource.JoinDocFreqValueSource.hashCode(JoinDocFreqValueSource.java:98)
at

org.apache.solr.handler.component.QueryComponent.process(QueryComponent.java:373)
[...]
{noformat}

As far as I can tell, the bug comes about as follows:
In org.apache.solr.search.ValueSourceParser, in the addParser(“joindf”, …) 
statement (lines 335-342), we extract the arguments f0 and qf without checking 
if these arguments could not be parsed. The test case produces a null pointer 
for the qfield field in the JoinDocFreqValueSource instance. This causes 
problems in hashcode (as evidenced in this bug), since it expects qfield to be 
non-null.

Looking at the usages of qfield, it is generally expected to be non-null, so it 
seems we are missing input validation in the parser.
