NPE in FileSystemInfo

See original GitHub issue

Bug report

What is the current behavior?

~~Null pointer error~~ Error due to null object in FileSystemInfo.getContextTimestamp

If the current behavior is a bug, please provide the steps to reproduce.

Call FileSystemInfo.getContextTimestamp with an immutable path (immutable path prefixes are provided in FileSystemInfo constructor).

What is the expected behavior?

_readContextTimestamp (processor for contextTimestampQueue) returns null for immutable paths:

https://github.com/webpack/webpack/blob/bd7cb37f1c0d872cfff9fc27c7db52a25e1ba6a3/lib/FileSystemInfo.js#L3016-L3020

so the queue callback in getContextTimestamp should handle entry possibly being null: https://github.com/webpack/webpack/blob/bd7cb37f1c0d872cfff9fc27c7db52a25e1ba6a3/lib/FileSystemInfo.js#L1164-L1168

This looks like a recent webpack update. (use webpack as a transitive dependency in my Node project).

It appeared in 5.51.0, so just downgrade to 5.50.0 for now.
