>                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ELY-1096
>             Project: WildFly Elytron
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 1.1.0.Beta37
>            Reporter: Martin Choma
>            Assignee: Yeray Borges
>            Priority: Critical
>
> There is variable {{currentSize}} marked with modifier as {{volatile}}, what hint variable {{currentSize}} is used in multithreaded manner, as volatile ensures actual value can be seen between threads.
> On the other side there is update operation on {{currentSize}}, which is not written in atomic manner, so can lead race condition.
> {code}
>     @Override
>     protected void write(byte[] bytes) throws IOException {
>         super.write(bytes);
>         currentSize += bytes.length;
>     }
> {code}
> Setting as Critical as that can lead to strange / hard to reproduce errors.
