sun/net/ftp/imp/FtpClient::dateFormats is an array of SimpleDateFormat which are shared among all instances of FtpClient, the fact that SimpleDateFormat isn't thread-safe renders FtpClient to be non-thread-safe as well. the easiest fix would be to make the only usage of dateFormats (parseRfc3659TimeValue method) synchronized.
