http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=38899 Summary: Problem with TagHandlerPool.reuse(Tag) method Product: Tomcat 5 Version: 5.5.15 Platform: Other OS/Version: other Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P4 Component: Jasper AssignedTo: tomcat-dev@jakarta.apache.org ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Currently the method org.apache.jasper.runtime.TagHandlerPool.reuse(Tag handler) - subproject jasper - has the following implementation: public void reuse(Tag handler) { synchronized( this ) { if (current < (handlers.length - 1)) { handlers[++current] = handler; return; } } // There is no need for other threads to wait for us to release handler.release(); } Where the handler.release() method of the returned TAG is called after the tag is returned to the pool and outside of the synchronization block. This is obviously wrong, because another thread can obtain the same tag from the pool and start use it, where at the same time the TagHandlerPool will release the tag (i.e. the tag will free its internal properties)! On a highly frequented site, this is very likely to happen simutaniously and the state of the tag will be inconsistent. The solution is very simple: Call the handler.release() Method before the tag is returned to the pool, or synchronize it.
