      1. Take a webapp, that self-registers its JASPIC AuthConfigProvider via AuthConfigFactory.registerConfigProvider() (i.e, any webapp that uses Jaspic)

      2. Deploy several instances of it to different contexts/vhosts

      3. Restart wildfly.

      4. After each webapp seemingly successfully registers its AuthConfigProvider, usually get the following exception on loading a webpage:

      javax.security.auth.message.config.AuthConfigFactory and
      org.jboss.security.auth.message.config.JBossAuthConfigFactory
      have race conditions.

      1. javax.security.auth.message.config.AuthConfigFactory#getFactory() has a race condition. The checking and creation of the _factory object is not atomic.

      I think the best and simplest solution would be to simply make the getFactory() method synchronized. (The same method in the Glassfish implmentation is synchronized)

      2. The keyTo*Map fields of the org.jboss.security.auth.message.config.JBossAuthConfigFactory are not thread safe.
      Nearly all methods of this class manipulate these, without any synchronization.

      In this case I believe that changing those from HashMaps to ConcurrentHashMaps should be enough to avoid the worst of the races, while incurring a negligible performance penalty.
      The methods that modify the maps should also be made synchronized, or rewritten to use the
      atomic ConcurrentHashMaps operations.

      A possible workaround is to add a synchronized(AuthConfigFactory.class) block around the JASPIC initialization code, where the JBossAuthConfigFactory methods are called. Of course this only works if every webapp on the server can be modified this way.
