>            Reporter: Attila Magyar
>            Priority: Minor
>             Fix For: 2.0.0, 1.9.0

> We see this NPE intermittently from KNOX when a topology is being redeployed and a request is still being processed in Shiro's AuthenticatingFilter.
> In DelegatingSubject.java:
> {code:java}
> log.trace("Starting session for host {}", getHost());
> SessionContext sessionContext = createSessionContext();
> // At this point the topology deploy already triggered a securityManager.destroy() so sessionManager is null
> Session session = this.securityManager.start(sessionContext); 
> this.session = decorate(session); {code}
> This is not a critical problem since the request will fail no matter what, but NPE suggests a programming error instead of a normal operation.
> I suggest putting a null check in securityManager.start() and throw an IllegalStateException("Session already destroyed") or something similar.
>  
> See https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KNOX-2297 for more context.
