Stanislav Kozlovski reassigned KAFKA-4493: ------------------------------------------ Assignee: Stanislav Kozlovski > Connections to Kafka brokers should be validated > ------------------------------------------------ > > Key: KAFKA-4493 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-4493 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: clients > Reporter: Ismael Juma > Assignee: Stanislav Kozlovski > Priority: Major > > There have been a few reports of Kafka clients throwing an OOM because they > read 4 bytes from the stream and then use that to allocate a ByteBuffer > without validating that they are using the right security protocol or even > communicating with a Kafka broker. > It would be good to perform some validation in order to show a useful error > message to the user instead of the OOM. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
