Eugene Koifman created HADOOP-11859:
---------------------------------------
Summary: PseudoAuthenticationHandler fails with httpcomponents v4.4
Key: HADOOP-11859
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-11859
Project: Hadoop Common
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Eugene Koifman
Assignee: Eugene Koifman
This shows in the context of WebHCat and Hive (which recently moved to
httpcomponents:httpclient:4.4) but could happen in other places.
URLEncodedUtils.parse(String, Charset) which is called from
PseudoAuthenticationHandler.getUserName() with the 1st argument produced by
HttpServletRequest.getQueryString().
The later returns NULL if there is no query string in the URL.
in httpcoponents:httpclient:4.2.5 parse() gracefully handles first argument
being NULL, but in 4.4 it NPEs.
