Summary
Missing Release of Resource after Effective Lifetime in Apache Tomcat
Details

The fix for bug 63362 present in Apache Tomcat 10.1.0-M1 to 10.1.0-M5, 10.0.0-M1 to 10.0.11, 9.0.40 to 9.0.53 and 8.5.60 to 8.5.71 introduced a memory leak.

This created a memory leak that, over time, could lead to a denial of service via an OutOfMemoryError.
