[GitHub] [trafficcontrol] ocket8888 opened a new issue #6372: Improper POST requests to /cachegroups cause segfaults

ocket8888 opened a new issue #6372:
URL: https://github.com/apache/trafficcontrol/issues/6372


   ## This Bug Report affects these Traffic Control components:
   - Traffic Ops
   
   ## Current behavior:
   Submitting a POST request to /cachegroups with a null or omitted `name` causes a runtime memory violation in Traffic Ops, whereupon it will respond to the request with a 500 Internal Server Error and matching Alert. This happens because Topology validation dereferences the Cache Group's Name before checking if it's `nil`. For this reason I suspect it's also an issue for PUT requests, though I've not checked.
   
   ## Expected behavior:
   An improper request should return a 400-level error and an alert that describes what properties are missing from the request when that is the case.
   
   ## Steps to reproduce:
   `topost -k cachegroups '{"typeId": 23}'` (replace `23` with the ID of any Type that has a `useInTable` value of `cachegroup`)

   Can confirm this is also an issue with PUT requests to /cachegroups, when only `typeId` is in the response and `name` is null or omitted it results in a 500 Internal Server Error
