-------------------------------------
Summary: Authentication is not cached properly if the callback handler does
not implement equals()/hashCode()
Key: JBREM-1338
URL:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBREM-1338
Project: JBoss Remoting
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Stuart Douglas
If the callback handler does not implement equals()/hashCode() then
AuthenticationConfiguration objects will not be considered equal (in the case where a new
one is being created each time), which will result in a memory leak in
org.jboss.remoting3.ConnectionPeerIdentityContext#futureAuths, as well as authentication
being attempted for every request. This can be observed by adding a loop to
org.jboss.as.test.integration.naming.remote.simple.RemoteNamingTestCase#testRemoteLookup
I think this is a fairly serious issue, as I think there will be a lot of handler out
there that do not meet this requirement, and it causes both a serious performance
regression due to repeated auth, as well as a memory leak that can crash the JVM.
