Fatal error when "user" context does not implement AccountInterface

Created on 21 September 2022, over 2 years ago
Updated 13 October 2023, about 1 year ago

Problem/Motivation

A fatal error occurs when the context key "user" is present but this has a value which is anything other than an object that implements AccountInterface. It is not guaranteed that the "user" context key is an account object at all times. We should check the type beforehand.

Steps to reproduce

This can be easily reproduced by installing the Monolog module, and logging in. The Monolog module includes a CurrentUserProcessor which provides a "user" context key which is not a full user object but instead a string containing the user name.

The following error occurs:

Proposed resolution

Check that the data is of the correct type before passing it to the method.
