Julian Chandra Sutadi commented on SOLR-18596:
----------------------------------------------

SOLR-17748 also reports an NPE in {{QueryComponent#returnFields}}. However, 
duplication is unconfirmed.

> NullPointerException in QueryComponent.returnFields on a cause-less 
> SolrServerException

> SOLR-17209 fixed a {{NullPointerException}} in {{QueryComponent.mergeIds}} 
> that occurs when a shard fails with a {{SolrServerException}} whose cause is 
> {{{}null{}}}. However, an identical unguarded unwrap still exists in the 
> sibling method {{QueryComponent.returnFields}} and was not covered by that 
> fix.
> Under the same condition, it can throw the same NPE during the GET_FIELDS 
> phase of a distributed search. For instance, consider a distributed sharded 
> query which has finished the first phase. In the second phase, with 
> {{{}shards.info=true{}}}, the coordinator records a per-shard error instead 
> of failing the whole request, which unwraps a shard's {{SolrServerException}} 
> to its cause before stringifying it.
> The unwrap, however, assumes that {{SolrServerException}} always wraps a 
> cause. {{LBSolrClient}} violates that assumption on the "time allowed 
> exceeded" and "no live servers" paths. In those paths, it constructs the 
> exception with no cause
> {code:java}
> // LBSolrClient.java
> if (ex == null) {
>   throw new SolrServerException(solrServerExceptionMessage);        // no 
> cause
> } else {
>   throw new SolrServerException(solrServerExceptionMessage, ex);
> }
> {code}
> Then, we will encounter NPE
> {code:java}
> // in QueryComponent#returnFields
> if (nl.get("error") == null) {
>   // Add the error to the shards info section if it wasn't added before
>   Throwable t = srsp.getException();
>   if (t instanceof SolrServerException) {      // no null-cause check
>     t = ((SolrServerException) t).getCause();  // t can become null
>   }
>   nl.add("error", t.toString());               // NPE when t == null
>   if (!rb.req.getCore().getCoreContainer().hideStackTrace()) {
>     StringWriter trace = new StringWriter();
>     t.printStackTrace(new PrintWriter(trace));
>     ...
>   }
> }
> {code}
> We'll attach a PR soon
