[jira] Created: (AXIS-1728) Axis slow down more than 2000 times when receive corrupted message

Axis slow down more than 2000 times when receive corrupted message
------------------------------------------------------------------

         Key: AXIS-1728
         URL: http://nagoya.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS-1728
     Project: Axis
        Type: Bug
    Versions: 1.2RC2    
 Environment: Windows XP, SP2
    Reporter: vd




I tried to send corrupted messages to an Axis server.  Normally, I would get ~ 250 hits/seconds.  However, when a corrupted message is sent to the server, I get 1 hit per 9 seconds.  This is more than 2 thousand times slowser!

Could this be used for denial of service attack?  Also, because the TcpIp protocal uses very weak checksum, problem of network package corruptions could bring the server to its knees.

How I introduce corrupted message?  I take normal message, randomly introduce some random data (including invalid xml characters).

Please fix this problem before release this version.
