> 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
