------- Comment #4 from mckinlay at redhat dot com 2005-11-17 17:38 ------- I'm curious whether other Java implementations do this - my guess is no, since some of these locks are mandated by the spec (during class initialization, for example), so it seems that denial-of-service attacks would always be possible. Its my understanding that the Java security model is not really designed or intended to guard against DOS attacks.
