---------------------------------------
Summary: RandomStringUtils#random can enter infinite loop if end
parameter is to small
Key: LANG-1287
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-1287
Project: Commons Lang
Issue Type: Bug
Components: lang.*
Affects Versions: 3.5
Reporter: Pascal Schumacher
Assignee: Pascal Schumacher
{quote}I faced that the random method can cause an infinite loop. It can be
caused if the end parameter is too low for generating either numbers (< 48) or
letters (<65). I added some exception tests to make the cases clear. Basically,
if we call the random function with for example numbers = true && end < 48
the validation for Character.isDigit(ch) will fail and we increment count
count++.{quote}
