> Overview:
> In May through June of 2016 a static analysis was performed on version 3.0.5
> of the Cassandra source code. The analysis included an automated analysis
> using HP Fortify v4.21 SCA and a manual analysis utilizing SciTools
> Understand v4. The results of that analysis includes the issue below.
> Issue:
> In the file CoalescingStrategies.java on line 502 there is a portability
> problem with the call to toLowerCase() because it has different locales which
> may lead to unexpected output. This may also circumvent custom validation
> routines.
> {code:java}
> CoalescingStrategies.java, lines 502-519:
> 502 String strategyCleaned = strategy.trim().toUpperCase();
> 503 switch(strategyCleaned)
> 504 {
> 505 case "MOVINGAVERAGE":
> 506 classname = MovingAverageCoalescingStrategy.class.getName();
