> platform security: m_permissions memory leak
> --------------------------------------------
>
> Key: FELIX-2283
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-2283
> Project: Felix
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Framework Security
> Affects Versions: framework.security-1.0.0
> Reporter: Reto Bachmann-Gmür
> Attachments: Permissions.java.patch
>
>
> Constant growth of memory using platform security 1.0.0 results in heap
> overflow as memory usage incerases with permission checks.
> Having a look at it I found two problems, for which I can submit a patch:
> - a value from m_permissions is never retrieved, as the PemissionsInfo Array
> is never equals to an existing key
> Solution: invoke get with an instance of Entry, change Entry.equals to check
> for deep equality of array-entries
> - as the Persmissions instance kept as (non-weak) reference in the
> m_permissions values references the PermissionInfo[] key-entry, none of them
> can be garbage collected. As a result the size of m_permissions constantly
> grows
