JACC PolicyContextHandler usage leaks ThreadLocal values -------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBAS-3956 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBAS-3956 Project: JBoss Application Server Issue Type: Bug Security Level: Public (Everyone can see) Components: EJB2, Security, Web (Tomcat) service Affects Versions: JBossAS-4.0.5.GA, JBossAS-4.0.4.GA, JBossAS-4.0.3 SP1, JBossAS-4.0.3 Final Reporter: Brian Stansberry Assigned To: Brian Stansberry Fix For: JBossAS-4.2.0.CR1, JBossAS-4.0.5.SP1 A number of the JACC PolicyContextHandler impls use a ThreadLocal. In many cases, the users of these classes are not making the necessary cleanup call and objects are leaking to the thread via the ThreadLocal. A search for implementations of PolicyContextHandler and then a review of the usage of each impl found problems with: org.jboss.ejb.BeanMetaDataPolicyContextHandler org.jboss.ejb.plugins.EnterpriseBeanPolicyContextHandler org.jboss.web.tomcat.security.HttpServletRequestPolicyContextHandler -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
