Consider a servlet "S" which invokes on a asynchronous EJB "A". Let's assume "S" runs with a "foo" run-as role. Now when S invokes on "A", the run-as "foo" role is correctly propagated to the asynchronous EJB invocation. However, when the "S" invocation completes and potentially clears the security context (of any run-as role), the invocation(s) within the asynchronous EJB "A" too lose the corresponding security context role association. This is because the 2 threads (the servlet invocation one and the async EJB invocation one) literally share the same object instance of the SecurityContext.
The expected behaviour is that the original security context (attributes) are copied over to the async invocation and updates to that security context later on in a separate thread shouldn't affect the ongoing async EJB invocation.
