Bug ID: 58946 Summary: ApplicationHttpRequest should enforce immutability of ParameterMap Product: Tomcat 8 Version: 8.0.30 Hardware: PC Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: Catalina Assignee: dev@tomcat.apache.org Reporter: knst.koli...@gmail.com JavaDoc for ServletRequest.getParameterMap(), both ours and the one at Oracle site [1] says: "Returns: an immutable java.util.Map containing [...]" The problem is that this immutability is not enforced by org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationHttpRequest class that is used to implement included or forwarded requests. Note that org.apache.catalina.util.ParameterMap class used for usual (not forwarded) requests does enforce immutability. An example of message from that class is shown below. Reproducible with current Tomcat 8.0-dev. Steps to reproduce -------------------- 1. Put the following two JSPs into ROOT web application: test.jsp [[[ <%@page contentType="text/plain;charset=UTF-8" import="java.util.*"%> <% RequestDispatcher rd = request.getRequestDispatcher("test2.jsp"); rd.forward(request, response); %> ]]] test2.jsp [[[ <%@page contentType="text/plain;charset=UTF-8" import="java.util.*"%> <% Map map = request.getParameterMap(); map.put("foo", "bar"); %> <%= map %> ]]] 2. Call http://localhost:8080/test.jsp?z=a Actual: -------- The following response is observed: [[[ {foo=bar, z=[Ljava.lang.String;@3877a5} ]]] Expected: --------- If I call the test2.jsp application directly, the behaviour is as expected: http://localhost:8080/test2.jsp?z=a HTTP Status 500 - An exception occurred processing JSP page /test2.jsp at line 4 root cause java.lang.IllegalStateException: No modifications are allowed to a locked ParameterMap org.apache.catalina.util.ParameterMap.put(ParameterMap.java:164) org.apache.jsp.test2_jsp._jspService(test2_jsp.java:115) ------------------------ I noticed this issue while performing code review, inspired by a thread started 2016-01-19 on users mailing list [2].
