Mike M. reopened CXF-8041:
--------------------------

[~ffang] thanks for looking into this! :-)

I ran my attached test project against the current CXF 3.3.3 SNAPSHOT and found 
that the exception creeps through another execution path now, but the effect is 
the same:

The {{org.apache.cxf.resource.DefaultResourceManager}} asks any registered 
ResourceResolver for the resource. Besides the 
{{ServletContextResourceResolver}} (that has been patched now), the call also 
goes through Spring and ends up (again) in the Tomcat Implementation that 
throws the very same {{IllegalArgumentException}} back up the stack (see 
attached stack trace below).

As a solution proposal, maybe the initial proposal should be rolled back and 
instead, the {{DefaultResourceManager#findResource}} method should catch either 
precisely that {{IllegalArgumentException}} or any potential 
{{RuntimeException}} thrown by any ResourceResolver while iterating through 
them around lines 113-122.

This problem can also be reproduced using my attached example project.

[/../../../../com/example/ws/1/XML-Schema_Example.xsd] has been normalized to 
[null] which is not valid

> We found an issue in a CXF JAX-WS project when running in WSDL-first mode 
> with schema-validation enabled on Tomcat. The WSDL references an external XSD 
> schema using a relative path. The WSDL and XSD are bundled with the 
> application and are present on the classpath.
> *Expectation:*
> The XSD should be resolved successfully and schema validation should work.
> *Actual behavior:*
> * The resource lookup runs through CXF {{EndpointReferenceUtils}}' 
> {{SchemaLSResourceResolver}}. This one runs through multiple strategies for 
> resolving the imported XSD URL to a resource. One of them (currently around 
> line 150) is an attempt to ask a {{ResourceManager}} for the URL.
> * In a Servlet context, this will be handled by CXF's 
> {{ServletContextResourceResolver}}. This one (currently starting around line 
> 82) will ask the actual {{ServletContext}} for the URL. While doing so, it 
> will catch and ignore {{MalformedURLException}} s as documented in the 
> {{ServletContext}} interface as well as {{URISyntaxException}} s (probably 
> precautionary).
> * Entering Tomcat's implementation: the call will go through Tomcat's 
> {{ApplicationContext}} and end up in the {{StandardRoot}}'s 
> {{#validate(String)}} method. Unfortunately, while validating the provided 
> URL, this one throws {{IllegalArgumentException}} s instead of just returning 
> {{null}}. In our case, since we resolve the XSD schema relative to the WSDL 
> and need to go up some levels (../../) from it, Tomcat thinks we're trying to 
> escape the application context and will trigger the 
> {{IllegalArgumentException}}.
> * Unfortunately though, this exception never gets caught and propagates up 
> the stack back to CXF's {{SchemaLSResourceResolver#resolveResource}}. This 
> method had several strategies for resolving resources, remember? The annoying 
> part is: we didn't even need that particular ServletContext strategy for our 
> XSD, and one of the other methods (classpath lookup) would have resolved the 
> XSD just fine, *had the ServletContext lookup not thrown the 
> {{IllegalArgumentException}}*. That uncaught exception however, breaks the 
> lookup entirely.
> *Solution proposal:*
> I think the least invasive solution would be for 
> {{ServletContextResourceResolver}} to additionally catch 
> {{IllegalArgumentException}} when calling {{ServletContext#getResource}}. It 
> already catches {{URISyntaxException}} even though that one isn't documented 
> by the {{ServletContext}} API. Catching an exception that basically says 
> "Hey, this argument isn't valid" would be semantically similar imho.
> A more drastic approach would be catching all {{RuntimeException}} s from the 
> Servlet Container in order to fulfill {{ResourceResolver#resolve}}'s 
> contract, namely: "@return an instance of the resource or null if the 
> resource cannot be resolved".
> *Reproducing the error:*
> I attached a sample project to this ticket that reproduces the issue. Make 
> sure to follow the instructions in its README.md.
