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.
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.
