Socket unexpectedly closed by a frontend while communicating with the backend

Hello guys! I'm a little bit confused with the following case.

I've got a Postgressql server running on host A, and a java based client
running on host B. The client uses org.postgresql.Driver JDBC driver
(version 9.1-901.jdbc3).

sometimes while executing long running stored procedure I get exception
"java.net.SocketException: Socket closed". I'm using
org.apache.commons.dbcp.BasicDataSource for retrieving

connections. DBCP pool is configured with default options.

I got tcp dump in order to figure out on which side (client or server)
socket is being closed;

Here is what I've got:

1. Client B sends a test query message when tries to borrow connection
from dbcp pool ("Select 1")

2. Server A sends successful response back (Type: Command completion,
Ready for query)

3. Client B sends ACK message in response on server A response (see the
item 2).

4. Client B sends query message to the server A.

5. Server A sends ACK message in response on client Query message (see
the item 4).

6. Client B sends terminating message (Type : Termination) after some
time passed (from 3 to 10 or sometimes even more minutes).

7 Client B sends FIN ACK message to the server.

8. Server A sends back ACK on termination message.

9. Server A sends ACK on (FIN, ACK) message (item 7).

10. Server A sends back a response on the client query (from item 4) Type:
Row description Columns: 40.

11. Client B sends RST message (reset).

12. Server A continues sending response on the query Type: Data row
Length: 438 Columns 40 and so on.

13 Client B sends RST message (reset) again.

14. Server A continues sending response on the query Type: Data row
Length: 438 Columns 40 and so on.

15. Client B sends RST message (reset).

After that communication seems to be finished.

After the item 6, in my client logs I got Exception like the following:

Caused by: java.net.SocketException: Socket closed

Could you please help me to figure out the reason of such a failure. (This
bug happens once per 10 successful cases.)

Thanks in advance!

Best regards, Mike Pryakhin.
