Description
The problem runs on astronomy-shop. Simulate a Kafka poison-pill failure where one malformed record blocks a consumer at a fixed offset. The consumer cannot deserialize or commit past the bad record, so valid records accumulate behind it while the producer, consumer, and broker pods remain Running and Ready. Inject the fault by seeding valid records followed by malformed data into the orders-fulfillment topic and starting the blocked consumer pipeline.
