----------------------------------------
Summary: Null pointer exception when no network interfaces are
available
Key: LOG4J2-2844
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-2844
Project: Log4j 2
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Core
Affects Versions: 2.13.2
Reporter: Andrei Terentiev
Hi,
java.net.NetworkInterface.getNetworkInterfaces() returns null when no network
interfaces are available (e.g. networking is disabled at the moment) - see
https://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/net/NetworkInterface.html#getNetworkInterfaces().
Seems that the line 98 of org.apache.logging.log4j.core.util.NetUtils.java
should have a null check.
Here is a stack trace:
