DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / A10 - DB2

A client side load will send the data and some conrol 
information across to the server using the DRDA communication 
protocol. 
In very rare circumstances, it is possible that a split DRDA 
message is wrongly interpreted by the DB2 server. 
This then leads to the load code wrongly interpreting a length 
which can trigger a large memory overwrite. 
 
As the overwrite can be large in size, the EDU detecting the 
problem is likely not the one causing the problem, so a stack 
will not directly point to this problem. 
The key factor leading to this problem is that a ( large ) 
client side load was happening at the time of the problem.
