I'm not sure, but I think fault code leaks can indeed occur in the Discovery Layer due to the way it handles connections.

I agree with Kimbery, because the Discovery Layer is responsible for describing and discovering Web services.

I think the Discovery Layer is the most vulnerable to fault code leaks, since it deals with the description and discovery of web services, which could expose sensitive information if not properly secured.
