The getRefByUuid() method contains an operator precedence issue in the APIException message construction:
throw new APIException("Unsupported type for getRefByUuid: " + type != null ? type.getName() : "null");Due to Java operator precedence, the ternary operator is evaluated incorrectly, causing the exception message to be wrong and potentially leading to a NullPointerException when type is null.
Proposed Fix
Wrap the ternary expression in parentheses:
throw new APIException( "Unsupported type for getRefByUuid: " + (type != null ? type.getName() : "null") );Impact
