malformed UPDATE queries causing NumberFormatException, AssertionError
----------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: CASSANDRA-3889
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-3889
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Core
    Affects Versions: 1.1.0
         Environment: Cassandra 1.1
            Reporter: paul cannon
            Priority: Minor


Given a columnfamily like:

{code}
        CREATE TABLE CounterCF (KEY text PRIMARY KEY, count_me counter)
            WITH comparator = ascii AND default_validation = counter;
{code}

This query causes Cassandra to throw a NumberFormatException and close the thrift connection (yes, it's not valid, cause it's a counter CF)

{code}
UPDATE CounterCF SET count_me = count_me + 2, x = 'a' WHERE key = 'counter1';
{code}

And this variant causes an AssertionError and a permanently unresponsive thrift connection:

{code}
update CounterCF set count_me=count_me+2, x='' where key = 'counter1';
{code}

When a valid hex string (with a multiple of 2 hex digits) is used instead of 'a' or '', then the expected InvalidRequestException is seen.

This is related to CASSANDRA-2851, but seems unimportant and incidental enough that a new ticket is more appropriate than reopening that one.
