----------------------------------
Hi Jonathan
I really don't think I'd be of much help on this one, I've only done a once
over on this myself and that was 2 months ago. I think this issue needs
someone with a fair bit of order component experience or a lot of time, and I'm
afraid I have neither at the moment. I can't really even offer any pointers
about where to look first.
I am going to look over it again when I have time but it won't be in the next
few days, sorry.

> Key: OFBIZ-431
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-431
> Project: Apache OFBiz (The Open for Business Project)
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: order
> Affects Versions: SVN trunk
> Environment: N/A - clean default
> Reporter: Ray Barlow
> Assigned To: Jacopo Cappellato
> Priority: Critical
>
> With the standard demo data raise an order for admin with 1 GZ-1000 and 1
> GZ-7000, 3 promotional products will be added to the order which is fine.
> Find and view the newly created order in the order application. Click on the
> edit link and then try to increase the order quantity of the GZ-1000 from 1
> to 2, the system will thrash away for a while and then fail with a
> transaction error, timed out.
> Once the dust has settled you can see that the party has also been sent 100
> +/-5 email notification changes, which is were I'm getting the feeling that
> recursion is the problem!
> Trying to cancel a line item can also cause the same effect, in general
> editting orders with promotions seems to cause lots of problems at the moment.
> PS: I'd advise this only gets tested on local development machines as the
> impact is quite an intense load on the server and can result in DoS style
> problems. That said I did execute this once on the "demo.dejc.com" server
> (sorry David) just to check it wasn't anything I'd changed, the admin account
> now has a lot of order change notifications (at least until the next reload
> of the site!).
> PPS: This can also be triggered via the customer facing site, when cancelling
> a line item from the order history page, bit of an exposure for live sites to
> DoS from malicious users.
