Description
CWE-584 Return Inside Finally
This test takes the name of a file as input. It then attempts
to get the absolute path of the file and open it for reading.
Since GetAbsolutePath.getAbsolutePath has a return in a finally
clause, any generated warnings are dropped, eventually leading to
a null pointer exception.
