NullPointerException in FileContentEventListener

XMLWordPrintable

      The FileContentEventListener assumes that the event contains a user (originatingUser.getKey().getStringValue()). If the event is called outside the scope of a request (from a scheduled job for example) then there will be no user and this code will cause a NPE.

      Suggest to guard against this possibility by properly checking for NULL.

      Set to minor because it looks like the exception is logged but there is no impact to the original request, but there will probably be an impact in the fact that the eventPublisher is not called.

            I can also confirm that this is happening with Confluence 5.8.18. Doesn't seem to be happening with 5.7.x and lower
