[GitHub] [trafficcontrol] TaylorCFrey opened a new issue #5628: CDN-in-a-box enroller does not derefence string pointer

TaylorCFrey opened a new issue #5628:
URL: https://github.com/apache/trafficcontrol/issues/5628


   ## I'm submitting a ...
   -  bug report
   
   ## Traffic Control components affected ...
   -  CDN in a Box
   
   ## Current behavior:
   
   Executing tests on the cdn-in-a-box directory revealed a missing derefence for a string pointer
   
   ```bash
   cd <trafficcontrol_directory>/infrastructure/cdn-in-a-box
   go test -v ./...
   ```
   
   Which will return
   
   ```bash
   # github.com/apache/trafficcontrol/infrastructure/cdn-in-a-box/enroller
   enroller/enroller.go:487:4: Infof format %s has arg s.Name of wrong type *string
   ```
   
   ## Expected behavior:
   
   Since there are no test files, executing `go test -v ./...` should return:
   
   ```bash
   ?   	github.com/apache/trafficcontrol/infrastructure/cdn-in-a-box/enroller	[no test files]
   ```
   
   ## Minimal reproduction of the problem with instructions:
   
   See steps under **_Current Behavior_**
   
   ## Anything else:
   
   The enroller has the potential to hit a run time exception by attempting to format a *string instead of a string. The string variable will need to be checked if _nil_ and, if not, it will need to be derefenced:
   
   ```go
   func enrollStatus(toSession *session, r io.Reader) error {
   // ...
   			log.Infof("status %s already exists\n", s.Name)
   // ...
   }
   ```
   
   A fix for the code might read something akin to:
   
   ```go
   func enrollStatus(toSession *session, r io.Reader) error {
   // ...
   			if s == nil {
   				temp := ""
   				s = &temp
   			}
   			log.Infof("status %s already exists\n", s.Name)
   // ...
   }
   ```
