Motivation
rpkt.UnsafeView()at function entry which can panic ifrpktisnileven when the request buffer (pkt) contains a valid MQTT packet.ProcessPossibleMQTTEventrobust for callers that may pass a nil response buffer while preserving existing behavior when the response buffer is present.Description
pkg/ebpf/common/mqtt_detect_transform.godefer the response-buffer dereference and replace the eagerrpkt.UnsafeView()with a lazy call inside the error path:ProcessMQTTEvent(rpkt.UnsafeView()).pkg/ebpf/common/mqtt_detect_transform_test.goadd a regression test casePUBLISH in request buffer without response bufferand adjust the test harness to pass anil*largebuf.LargeBufferwhenresponseis absent so the function is exercised with anilresponse buffer.gofmt) to the modified files.Testing
go test ./pkg/internal/ebpf/mqttparsergo test ./pkg/internal/largebufgo test ./pkg/ebpf/common -run TestProcessPossibleMQTTEvent
