Daryn Sharp created HDFS-6305: --------------------------------- Summary: WebHdfs response decoding may throw RuntimeExceptions Key: HDFS-6305 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-6305 Project: Hadoop HDFS Issue Type: Bug Components: webhdfs Affects Versions: 2.0.0-alpha, 3.0.0 Reporter: Daryn Sharp Assignee: Daryn Sharp Priority: Critical
WebHdfs does not guard against exceptions while decoding the response payload. The json parser will throw RunTime exceptions on malformed responses. The json decoding routines do not validate the expected fields are present which may cause NPEs. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
