Adding GSS authentication properties such as the below [1] to a VDB results in the below NPE [3]. This occurs with transports set to default values [2].

[1]
<property name="gss-pattern" value="kerberos" />
<property name="password-pattern" value="^(?!kerberos).*$" />

[2]
<transport name="odata">
<authentication security-domain="teiid-security"/>
</transport>
<transport name="jdbc" socket-binding="teiid-jdbc" protocol="teiid">
<authentication security-domain="teiid-security"/>
</transport>
<transport name="odbc" socket-binding="teiid-odbc" protocol="pg">
