Here is a better description. I am not sure where to look for in tomcat
code.

---------------
we are seeing a session mixup problem in a deployed tomcat instance running
with coyote connector. A user is seeing another user's data and request
parameters. We took a look at the coyote code and found out that parameters
are not reset till the next request. If a thread switch were to occur during
this time (due to an exception), is it possible for session data to get
mixed up? Please let us know how we can further investigate the problem or
if you have a solution for this
------------------

Thanks
Ravi

Sorry if this is the wrong alias. I am a developer and am trying to look
into tomcat code to determine the source of problem.

Is this problem fixed in 4.1.29? I don't see any bug reports for this.

I think you should try TC 4.1.29 or 5.0.14.
(please post that kind of message on tomcat-user)
