If the JVM is on your browser, definitely not.
On the server, a stack overflow will effectively kill the thread. If it is missing
finallyblocks the thread might die without releasing resources which could wedge the server after a while, but it should release all mutexes held due tosynchonizedblocks. Assuming the error is not handled, it will call the thead’sThreadUncaughtExceptionHandlerwhich normally will not take down the server unless the server is doing work in the main thread, but an uncaught exception handler could be implemented to take down the server.
