Summary: ManagerBase leaks fd to /dev/urandom when context
stopped
Product: Tomcat 5
Version: 5.5.27
Platform: PC
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: Catalina
AssignedTo: dev@tomcat.apache.org

On operating systems where /dev/urandom exists,
org.apache.catalina.session.ManagerBase will use it as a source of data for
getRandomBytes().
If you stop a context or undeploy a host, the number of file descriptors that
have /dev/urandom open tomcat remains constant.
For example, if you use the manager application to stop or undeploy a context,
the number of file descriptors to /dev/urandom is the same as before the stop.
File descriptor use is determined by using lsof or examining the /proc/<pid>/fd
directory on Linux.
The same issue is seen if you undeploy a virtual host.
If you undeploy/deploy a context, or remove/add a virtual host, the # of file
descriptors to /dev/urandom will increase each time.
This is because ManagerBase does not close the DataInputStream it holds to
/dev/urandom.
The patch shown below resolves this issue. Stopping a context, or undeploying a
virtual host will close the session manager's reference to /dev/urandom.
