             Summary: Implement graceful handling for improperly formed 
compressed message sets
                 Key: KAFKA-4776
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-4776
             Project: Kafka
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: log
    Affects Versions: 0.10.1.1, 0.10.1.0, 0.10.0.1, 0.10.0.0, 0.10.2.0
            Reporter: Jason Gustafson
            Assignee: Jason Gustafson
            Priority: Minor


This affects validation of compressed message sets. It is possible for a buggy 
client to send both a null compressed message set (i.e. a wrapper message with 
a null value), and an empty compressed message set (i.e. a wrapper message with 
valid compressed data in the value field, but no actual records). In both 
cases, this causes an unexpected exception raised from the deep iteration, 
which is returned to the client as an UNKNOWN_ERROR. It would be better to 
return a CORRUPT_MESSAGE error.

Note also that the behavior of the empty case was potentially more problematic 
in versions prior to 0.10.2.0. Although we properly handled the null case, the 
broker would accept the empty message set and write it to the log. The impact 
of this appears to be minor, but may cause unexpected behavior in cases where 
we assume compressed message sets would contain some records.
