>            Reporter: Karan Mehta
>            Assignee: Andor Molnar

>
>          Time Spent: 5.5h
>  Remaining Estimate: 0h

> To reproduce, apply the diff and run 
> ClientSSLTest#testSecureStandaloneServer() test. The logs would show that a 
> valid session was created before connection was rejected and client had to 
> retry

>  What should have happened:
>  Server should instantly close the client's connection and NOT process any

>  Potential threat:
>  Malicious clients may be able to put unnecessary load/traffic on the leader

>  Race Condition:
>  In CertificateVerifier#operationComplete(), `addCnxn(cnxn)` method is only 
> called after auth is completed. NettyServerCnxn#close() returns as a no-op 
> [here|https://github.com/apache/zookeeper/blob/branch-3.5/zookeeper-server/src/main/java/org/apache/zookeeper/server/NettyServerCnxn.java#L105].
