JDK Memory Leak with SAML 1.1 Artifact Transactions

If your federated environment is running on the following configuration, JDK 1.6.x may leak up to 4 KB of memory at the Identity Provider for each SAML 1.1 Artifact transaction:

• An r12.0 SP3 Policy Server is installed on Solaris 9.
• Java 1.6.x is installed on the Policy Server host system.
• Oracle databases are deployed as a SiteMinder session store, a user store, or both.

A case has been opened with Oracle to investigate the Sun Java 1.6 leak when running on Solaris 9.

If you have the previous configuration, contact Support for instructions on how to resolve this issue.

This leak is specific to the previous configuration. The leak does not occur if:

• A database other than Oracle is deployed as a SiteMinder session store, a user store, or both.
• The Policy Server is installed on Solaris 10.
