Data Resource Access without Use of Connection Pooling

The product accesses a data resource through a database without using a connection pooling capability.


Description

This issue can make the product perform more slowly, as connection pools allow connections to be reused without the overhead and time consumption of opening and closing a new connection. If the relevant code is reachable by an attacker, then this performance problem might introduce a vulnerability.
