APAR status
Closed as program error.

Error description
S0C4 in module BBOSSITU+2E70 due to a 464 byte storage overlay.
The storage overlay occurs in Subpool 249 Key 2. Module BBOSSITU
obtains a 0x2000 byte block of storage in SP249 upon entry. The
overlay occurs when BBOSSITU is invoked to obtain identity
information associated with a client digital certificate.
BBOSSITU zeros out a buffer which overflows its 0x2000 byte
block of storage by 0x1d0 bytes.
  The corrupted storage is not part of the LE heap or the JVM
heap. SP249 Key 2 storage is generally used for WebSphere
security modules. BBOSSITU blanks out whatever happens to follow
its 0x2000 byte block.
.
Customers using security function for client digital
certificates need this fix.

****************************************************************
Dynamic stack area overflow was causing a 464 byte overlay into
another two page dynamic stack area.
Problem conclusion
Allocation of a RACF work area is no longer done from the
dynamic area of BBOSSITU but from a cpool.  This reduced the
required size of the dynamic area to within the allocation.
