> EventAdmin 1.3.2 can create an OutOfMemory condition caused by not delivered async events.
> The problem can occur if an interrupted thread issues an async event (e.g. log-event).
> In EventAdmin 1.3.2 the async-delivery uses DefaultThreadPool based on PooledExecutor. 
> If the already interrupted thread enters the execute-method in PooledExecutor an InterruptedException is thrown before the TaskExecutor was added to the Thread-Pool.
> This Exception is catched(not handled, only logged) in the DefaultThreadPool.
> As a result the TaskExecuter was not scheduled in the ThreadPool but is still part of the m_running_threads.
> All new events are added to the pool of the TaskExecuter, adding in a increasing LinkedList. The TaskExecutor is never started again. Memory is leaking.
> Seems that 1.4.x is not vulnerable related to interrupted threads. But the same catch-and-not-handle block is used in 1.4.x.
