Description

The code in currentServerTime was not testing the existence of the entry in ServerTimeMap correctly. As a result, it would have missed the case where an entry could be missing from the map.

That being said, this is a benign bug. It would never triggered unless the clock is set around epoch time ( which is not really realistic ). This fix is just to make sure that our code is correct. There should be no expectation of any behavioral change.

PR Structure

  • This PR has reasonably narrow scope (if not, break it down into smaller PRs).
  • This PR avoids mixing refactoring changes with feature changes (split into two PRs
    otherwise).
  • This PR's title starts with name of package that is most changed in the PR, ex.
    services/friendbot, or all or doc if the changes are broad or impact many
    packages.

Thoroughness

  • This PR adds tests for the most critical parts of the new functionality or fixes.
  • I've updated any docs (developer docs, .md
    files, etc... affected by this change). Take a look in the docs folder for a given service,
    like this one.

Release planning

  • I've updated the relevant CHANGELOG (here for Horizon) if
    needed with deprecations, added features, breaking changes, and DB schema changes.
  • I've decided if this PR requires a new major/minor version according to
    semver, or if it's mainly a patch change. The PR is targeted at the next
    release branch if it's not a patch change.

What

The logic of currentServerTime is being update to properly test for absence of hosts entry in the map.

Why

Potential issue was found during code review.

Known limitations

N/A

…erTime isn't contained in the global ServerTimeMap.
