J2EE Bad Practices: Use of System.exit()

VariantDraft

Description

A J2EE application uses System.exit(), which also shuts down its container.

It is never a good idea for a web application to attempt to shut down the application container. Access to a function that can shut down the application is an avenue for Denial of Service (DoS) attacks.
