           Summary: Concurrent connection attempts are allowed by
                    WebSockets
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows XP
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: New Bugs
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: ocheung at rim.com


According to the protocol specification for WebSockets, multiple connections in the handshake phase should not be allowed. Another WebSocket connection attempt by JavaScript should only be allowed after the previous handshake attempt has either completed successfully or has failed. This mechanism helps to prevent against denial of service attacks.
