[jira] [Updated] (HBASE-11325) Malformed RPC calls can corrupt stores

["Esteban Gutierrez (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-11325?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Esteban Gutierrez updated HBASE-11325:
--------------------------------------

    Attachment: HBASE-11325.patch

This is a prototype that matches the layout of a KV (according to KeyValue.createEmptyByteArray) and if the some values are out of range or the position of some markers like {{KeyValue.Type.Put}} don't match we throw an IOE back to the client. I couldn't find any issue in the unit tests and also I wasn't able to corrupt the store after this patch.

> We noticed in a cluster a Region Server that aborted with a DroppedSnapshotException due an IOException in ScanWildcardColumnTracker when the RS tried to flush the memstore. After further research it was found that a client was sending corrupt RPCs requests to the RS and those corrupt requests ended into the stores causing corruption of the memstore itself and in some cases HFiles.  More details to follow.
