Description kaidowei+apache 2019-03-08 15:19:42 UTC
We're using the tomcat-embedded-core 9.0.16 shipped with spring boot 2.1.3.

We have a some NPE in AsyncContextImpl line 209. (see stacktrace below)
Pretty sure, that it's related to the fix of this bug, as line 209 was changed there: https://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=63003
As this is not happening of every request, I think it is a race condition.

Unfortunately I was not able to reproduce it locally.
But we're using 
org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-web and
org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-webflux together, if that helps.

Please tell me, if I can assist more.
