Error description
The WebSphere MQ Java code that calls a user supplied native security exit is different from the MQ C client, which may cause some exits to not function correctly. The size of the AgentBuffer supplied by the MQ Java client to a security exit is zero, when the MQ C client supplies a minimum buffer size. If the exit does not check the supplied AgentBuffer size, and returns data in the zero length buffer, an IllegalArgumentException may be thrown by the MQ Java client.
Local fix
