Description

 When using the InvokeHTTP Processor. If the requested URL redirects from HTTPS to HTTP, the convertAttributesFromHeaders function attempts to call

responseHttp.handshake().peerPrincipal().getName()

when

responseHttp.handshake()

returns null. This throws a NPE.

This can be fixed by checking the responseHttp object for SSL rather than the original URL.
