Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.

RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description of problem:
With bug 1284948 we've fixed an OpenJDK memory leak in the jdwp layer of the Java debugger interface. The included fix with bug 1284948 contains a potential race which may lead to crashes or invalid results. See the upstream bug for more information. On top of the fix for bug 1284948 we should also include the additional upstream fix of JDK-8181419 here:
http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk10/jdk10/jdk/rev/b0d1ada042b6

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
java-1.8.0-openjdk-1.8.0.121-2.b13.el7

Included in 7.3.z and 7.4 as part of July 2017 security update.

7.4 has shipped.

7.5 has shipped.

7.6 has shipped.

I believe this has been fixed. OpenJDK in RHEL is at 8u201. The upstream bug is included in 8u162 and up.
