…tor bypass Patches HiveTableValidator.notApplicableTableType() to also bypass required-SD validation when table_type=ICEBERG, not just storage_handler. Iceberg tables whose StorageDescriptor gets stripped (e.g. by the Glue managed column-stats service) were failing get_table with "StorageDescriptor#InputFormat cannot be null" instead of falling through the Iceberg bypass path.

lib/aws-glue-datacatalog-hive3-client-3.4.0-WD-1.jarto include a defense-in-depth fix inHiveTableValidator.notApplicableTableType(): the required-StorageDescriptor-properties validator is now also bypassed when a table'stable_typeparameter isICEBERG, not just whenstorage_handleris set.This guards against Iceberg tables whose StorageDescriptor gets stripped by external processes (e.g. Glue's managed column-statistics service issuing an
UpdateTablewithoutInputFormat/OutputFormat/SerdeInfo), which previously causedget_tableto fail with:No source changes in this repo — the jar is a prebuilt dependency checked into
lib/. Verified via javap decompilation that the only functional bytecode change is the newisIcebergTable(Table)check inHiveTableValidator; all other class files differ only due to constant-pool churn from the full module recompile. Class file version is unchanged (Java 8 / major version 52).Test plan
