File be/src/exec/hdfs-text-table-writer.cc:

Line 209:       rowbatch_stringstream_ << str_val->ptr[i];
This isn't right - it assumes that the StringValue is NULL-terminated. So we 
could overrun ptr the pointer buffer (maybe crashing Impala or printing 
sensitive data) or incorrectly truncate it if there is a NULL character in the 
buffer.

We should also add a query test. E.g. in the IMPALA-2700 JIRA I had a simple 
reproduction of the problem that would catch some problems like this.
