Coverity static analysis: Explicit null dereferenced in LdapKeyStore (Elytron) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Key: ELY-751 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ELY-751 Project: WildFly Elytron Issue Type: Bug Reporter: Josef Cacek Assignee: Ilia Vassilev Priority: Critical Labels: static_analysis Coverity static-analysis scan found possible use of null object in {{LdapKeyStore}} constructor. https://scan7.coverity.com/reports.htm#v16159/p11778/fileInstanceId=57601... The {{LdapKeyStore.Builder.build()}} method constructs the {{LdapKeyStore}} instance this way: {code} return new LdapKeyStore(spi, null, null); {code} and the constructor just calls parent ctor: {code} protected LdapKeyStore(KeyStoreSpi keyStoreSpi, Provider provider, String type) { super(keyStoreSpi, provider, type); } {code} And it fails with NPE if debug for {{KeyStore}} is enabled as the constructor contains: {code} if (!skipDebug && pdebug != null) { pdebug.println("KeyStore." + type.toUpperCase() + " type from: " + this.provider.getName()); } {code}
