It may happen when you store a Connection related Filter state using
either ctx.getStopAction(state) or ctx.getInvokeAction(state).

In your case I'd say could be ctx.getInvokeAction(state); , because
first of all you say you don't do that, second is
ctx.getStopAction(state) checks if the state is Appendable and if it's
not it will throw an Exception right away.
So it's probably ctx.getInvokeAction(state);, or something else, which
we'll need to investigate using patch(es).

WBR,
Alexey.
