CVE-2009-0027: Input Validation
First published: Mon Jan 12 2009(Updated: )
The request handler in JBossWS in JBoss Enterprise Application Platform (aka JBoss EAP or JBEAP) 4.2 before 4.2.0.CP06 and 4.3 before 4.3.0.CP04 does not properly validate the resource path during a request for a WSDL file with a custom web-service endpoint, which allows remote attackers to read arbitrary XML files via a crafted request.
