> ValueFactory: Missing identifier validation when creating (weak)reference
> value from String
> -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: OAK-238
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OAK-238
> Project: Jackrabbit Oak
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: jcr
> Reporter: angela
> Assignee: angela
>
> the JCR specification mandates validation of the identifier during
> value conversion from STRING to REFERENCE or WEAK_REFERENCE:
> <quote from 3.6.4.1 From STRING To)>
> REFERENCE or WEAKREFERENCE: If the string is a syntactically valid
> identifier, according to the implementation, it is converted directly,
> otherwise a
> ValueFormatException is thrown. The identifier is not required to be that of
> an
> existing node in the current workspace.
> <end_quote>
> the current ValueFactory implementation in oak-jcr lacks that validation:
> creating a REFERENCE or WEAKREFERENCE value using
> ValueFactory#createValue(String, int) succeeds even if the specified string
> isn't a valid referenceable node identifier.
