[jira] [Created] (CASSANDRA-20982) BytesType should only be compatible with simple scalar types

Brandon Williams created CASSANDRA-20982:
--------------------------------------------

             Summary: BytesType should only be compatible with simple scalar types
                 Key: CASSANDRA-20982
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-20982
             Project: Apache Cassandra
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Brandon Williams


Discovered while backporting CASSANDRA-18760, see https://github.com/datastax/cassandra/commit/b5f7d239ce92db7d9c5f79c69cad0caea67fcb23

Basically, things like https://github.com/apache/cassandra/blob/trunk/test/unit/org/apache/cassandra/cql3/validation/operations/AlterTest.java#L71 shouldn't be allowed to pass, because converting a frozen collection to bytes allows reading the raw bytes, which is nonsensical.

This was found because the AbstractTypeTest is beefed up [here|https://github.com/datastax/cassandra/blob/main/test/unit/org/apache/cassandra/db/marshal/AbstractTypeTest.java]
