Description Tomas Hoger 2011-10-12 09:01:14 UTC

It was discovered that the number of UDP sockets an application running with SecurityManager restrictions can use by default was set too high.  If multiple instances of a malicious applications were started at the same time, it can result in exhaustion of all available UDP sockets, possibly blocking other applications on the system from being able to do UDP network communication.
