JDBC - Version 10.2.0.4 to 11.1.0.7 [Release 10.2 to 11.1]
Information in this document applies to any platform.

Symptoms

Within WebLogic application server version 9.2 or 10.1, when using the JDBC Thin driver versions 10.2.0.4, 11.1.0.6 or 11.1.0.7 with a XA JDBC connection,  a memory  leak can occur. This can be observed  when oracle.jdbc.xa.OracleXAResource$XidListEntry objects number  is constantly increasing.

An example of a possible leak:
a CMT (container managed transaction) EJB Session Bean method is invoked  with the 'RequiresNew' attribute. After invoking this EJB method several times, OracleXAResource$XidListEntry objects number is increasing.
