George Joseph commented on ASTERISK-28810:
------------------------------------------

It was only for future reference so no big deal.  
I'll get the patch submitted tomorrow unless you wish to submit it yourself to https://gerrit/asterisk.org.  It's always better if the contributor can do it themselves.

> ast_manager_build_channel_state_string_prefix was passed a null snapshot, upon looking around the code base there are many paths where it is called with out first checking.
> This problem will keep happening if it is reliant on callers of this method to first check the arg. The simple solution is to do a null check on the snapshot in ast_manager_build_channel_state_string_prefix and return NULL.
> I will attach a patch shortly.
