Why does JBoss have a memory leak when using SSL and the Java security manager?

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • Why does JBoss have a memory leak when using SSL and the Java security manager?
    • When running externally generated SOAP or non-SOAP http POST requests using server authenticated SSL the server dumps heap after running out of memory.
  • We enabled SSL on the JBossWeb connector and enabled the Java security manager. After that load testing our web service results in a memory leak.
