[jira] [Created] (NIFI-10397) InvokeHTTP is sending empty User-Agent header

Josh Highley created NIFI-10397:
-----------------------------------

             Summary: InvokeHTTP is sending empty User-Agent header
                 Key: NIFI-10397
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-10397
             Project: Apache NiFi
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Josh Highley


Issue introduced by this change:  [https://github.com/apache/nifi/pull/4428]

When the InvokeHTTP processor configuration has no value for UserAgent, InvokeHTTP is still sending a User-Agent header but with no header value.  (User-Agent: \r\n)

If the configuration has no value, then no User-Agent header should be sent.

An empty value for User-Agent header will trigger some request scanners attempting to block robots.
