    Priority: Critical  (was: Major)

> CellCodec Written To WAL Before It's Verified

>                 Key: HBASE-21492
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-21492
>             Project: HBase
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: wal
>    Affects Versions: 1.2.7, 2.0.2
>            Reporter: BELUGA BEHR
>            Priority: Critical
>
> The cell codec class name is written into the WAL file, but the cell codec 
> class is not actually verified to exist.  Therefore, users can inadvertently 
> configure an invalid class name and it will be recorded into the WAL file.  
> At that point, the WAL file becomes unreadable and blocks processing of all 
> other WAL files.
> {code:java|title=AbstractProtobufLogWriter.java}
>   private WALHeader buildWALHeader0(Configuration conf, WALHeader.Builder 
> builder) {
>     if (!builder.hasWriterClsName()) {
>       builder.setWriterClsName(getWriterClassName());
>     }
>     if (!builder.hasCellCodecClsName()) {
>       builder.setCellCodecClsName(WALCellCodec.getWALCellCodecClass(conf));
>     }
>     return builder.build();
>   }
> {code}
