             Summary: Potential null dereference in 
DDLSemanticAnalyzer#addInputsOutputsAlterTable()
                 Key: HIVE-8523
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-8523
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Ted Yu
            Priority: Minor


Here is related code:
{code}
        if (desc == null
            || 
!AlterTableDesc.doesAlterTableTypeSupportPartialPartitionSpec(desc.getOp())) {
          throw new SemanticException(
              ErrorMsg.ALTER_TABLE_TYPE_PARTIAL_PARTITION_SPEC_NO_SUPPORTED, 
desc.getOp().name());
{code}
If desc is null, the construction of SemanticException would trigger NPE due to 
the call to desc.getOp().
