It was discovered that the Role Based Access Control (RBAC) implementation did not sufficiently verify all authorization conditions required by the Maintainer role to perform certain administrative actions. An authenticated user with the Maintainer role can use this flaw to add, modify or undefine a limited set of attributes and their values which otherwise cannot be written to.

IssueDescription:

It was found that the fix for CVE-2012-0818 was incomplete: external parameter entities were not disabled when the resteasy.document.expand.entity.references parameter was set to false. A remote attacker able to send XML requests to a RESTEasy endpoint could use this flaw to read files accessible to the user running the application server, and potentially perform other more advanced XXE attacks.

IssueDescription:

It was found that the isCallerInRole() method of the SimpleSecurityManager did not correctly check caller roles. A remote, authenticated attacker could use this flaw to circumvent the caller check in applications that use black list access control based on caller roles.

IssueDescription:

It was found that the fix for CVE-2013-2133 was incomplete: the JAX-WS handlers were being executed for outbound messages even when authorization had failed. A remote attacker who is authorized to access the EJB class, could invoke a JAX-WS handler which they were not authorized to invoke.
