Cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in Red Hat JBoss BRMS and BPMS 6 allows remote attackers to hijack the authentication of users for requests that modify instances via a crafted web page.

Red Hat JBoss BRMS is a business rules management system for the management, storage, creation, modification, and deployment of JBoss Rules.<br>Security Fix(es):<br><li> It was found that JGroups did not require necessary headers for encrypt and auth protocols from new nodes joining the cluster. An attacker could use this flaw to bypass security restrictions, and use this vulnerability to send and receive messages within the cluster, leading to information disclosure, message spoofing, or further possible attacks. (CVE-2016-2141)</li> This issue was discovered by Dennis Reed (Red Hat).

An SQL injection vulnerability was found in dashbuilder.

XML external entity (XXE) vulnerability in the SVG to (1) PNG and (2) JPG conversion classes in Apache Batik 1.x before 1.8 allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files or cause a denial of service via a crafted SVG file.

jmx-remoting.sar in JBoss Remoting, as used in Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform (JEAP) 5.2.0, Red Hat JBoss BRMS 5.3.1, Red Hat JBoss Portal Platform 5.2.2, and Red Hat JBoss SOA Platform 5.3.1, does not properly implement the JSR 160 specification, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors.

IssueDescription:

It was identified that PicketBox/JBossSX allowed any deployed application to alter or read the underlying application server configuration and state without any authorization checks. An attacker able to deploy applications could use this flaw to circumvent security constraints applied to other applications deployed on the same system, disclose privileged information, and in certain cases allow arbitrary code execution.

The org.jboss.remoting.transport.socket.ServerThread class in Red Hat JBoss Remoting for Red Hat JBoss SOA Platform 5.3.1 GA, Web Platform 5.2.0, Enterprise Application Platform 5.2.0, and other products allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (file descriptor consumption) via unspecified vectors.

A flaw was found in the way JBoss RichFaces handled deserialization. A remote attacker could use this flaw to trigger the execution of the deserialization methods in any serializable class deployed on the server. This could lead to a variety of security impacts depending on the deserialization logic of these classes.

The AuthorizationInterceptor in JBoss Enterprise Application Platform (EAP) before 5.2.0, Web Platform (EWP) before 5.2.0, BRMS Platform before 5.3.1, and SOA Platform before 5.3.1 does not properly restrict access, which allows remote authenticated users to bypass intended role restrictions and perform arbitrary JMX operations via unspecified vectors.

The (1) JNDI service, (2) HA-JNDI service, and (3) HAJNDIFactory invoker servlet in JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 4.3.0 CP10 and 5.1.2, Web Platform 5.1.2, SOA Platform 4.2.0.CP05 and 4.3.0.CP05, Portal Platform 4.3 CP07 and 5.2.x before 5.2.2, and BRMS Platform before 5.3.0 do not properly restrict write access, which allows remote attackers to add, delete, or modify items in a JNDI tree via unspecified vectors.

JGroups diagnostics service in JBoss Enterprise Portal Platform before 5.2.2, SOA Platform before 5.3.0, and BRMS Platform before 5.3.0, is enabled without authentication when started by the JGroups channel, which allows remote attackers in adjacent networks to read diagnostics information via a crafted IP multicast.

The JBoss Server in JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 5.1.x before 5.1.2 and 5.2.x before 5.2.2, Web Platform before 5.1.2, BRMS Platform before 5.3.0, and SOA Platform before 5.3.0, when the server is configured to use the JaccAuthorizationRealm and the ignoreBaseDecision property is set to true on the JBossWebRealm, does not properly check the permissions created by the WebPermissionMapping class, which allows remote authenticated users to access arbitrary applications.

The (1) JMXInvokerHAServlet and (2) EJBInvokerHAServlet invoker servlets in JBoss Enterprise Application Platform (EAP) before 5.2.0, Web Platform (EWP) before 5.2.0, BRMS Platform before 5.3.1, and SOA Platform before 5.3.1 do not require authentication by default in certain profiles, which might allow remote attackers to invoke MBean methods and execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors. NOTE: this issue can only be exploited when the interceptor is not properly configured with a "second layer of authentication," or when used in conjunction with other vulnerabilities that bypass this second layer.

JBoss Web will enter into an infinite loop when a surrogate pair character is placed at the boundary of an internal buffer. A remote attacker could exploit this flaw to trigger a denial-of-service attack against a JBoss Web server that is hosting applications with UTF-8 character encoding enabled, or that will include user-supplied UTF-8 strings in a response.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the JMX console in JBoss Enterprise Application Platform (EAP) before 5.2.0, Web Platform (EWP) before 5.2.0, BRMS Platform before 5.3.1, and SOA Platform before 5.3.1 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via unspecified vectors.

By using a specially crafted HTTP request, the first layer of authentication for the invoker servlets deployed by httpha-invoker can be bypassed, as the access restrictions only apply for GET and POST. Due to the second layer of authentication provided by the security interceptor, there is no way to directly exploit this flaw. If a user misconfigured the security interceptor or inadvertently disabled it, this flaw would be exploitable.

The fix is to remove the verb-specific <http-method> elements from web.xml. This issue is a regression of CVE-2010-0738.

Cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in the JMX Console (jmx-console) in JBoss Enterprise Portal Platform before 5.2.2, BRMS Platform 5.3.0 before roll up patch1, and SOA Platform 5.3.0 allows remote authenticated users to hijack the authentication of arbitrary users for requests that perform operations on MBeans and possibly execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors.

wsf/common/DOMUtils.java in JBossWS Native in Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 4.2.0.CP09, 4.3, and 5.1.1; JBoss Enterprise Portal Platform 4.3.CP06 and 5.1.1; JBoss Enterprise SOA Platform 4.2.CP05, 4.3.CP05, and 5.1.0; JBoss Communications Platform 1.2.11 and 5.1.1; JBoss Enterprise BRMS Platform 5.1.0; and JBoss Enterprise Web Platform 5.1.1 does not properly handle recursion during entity expansion, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory and CPU consumption) via a crafted request containing an XML document with a DOCTYPE declaration and a large number of nested entity references, a similar issue to CVE-2003-1564.
