[GSS](7.4.z) EJBCLIENT-408 - Racecondition in RemotingEJBDiscoveryProvider is causing a NullPointerException

    XMLWordPrintable

Details

    Description

      A race condition in RemotingEJBDiscoveryProvider is causing a NullPointerException in line 126 during autoboxing the Long value.

      This can happen in the case that Thread A is executing line 123 with the containsKey and a return value of true, then Thread B is removing that entry from the Map, while Thread A is calling get in line 126, which will result in a return value of null, leading to a NullPointerException during autoboxing, see:

      122     private boolean haveNotExpiredFailedDestination(URI uri) {
123         if(!failedDestinations.containsKey(uri))
124             return false;
125         else {
126             long failureTimestamp = failedDestinations.get(uri);
127             long delta = System.nanoTime() - failureTimestamp;
128             return delta < DESTINATION_RECHECK_INTERVAL;
129         }
130     }

          Bug - A problem that impairs or prevents the functions of the product. EJBCLIENT-408 Racecondition in RemotingEJBDiscoveryProvider is causing a NullPointerException

          • Major - To be worked after higher priority work items are addressed. When the severity is high and the effort to change it is low to moderate, this term is chosen. Issues in this category likely have an existing workaround but implementation or execution may be non-trivial.
