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.
Apache CXF 2.5.x before 2.5.10, 2.6.x before CXF 2.6.7, and 2.7.x before CXF 2.7.4 does not verify that a specified cryptographic algorithm is allowed by the WS-SecurityPolicy AlgorithmSuite definition before decrypting, which allows remote attackers to force CXF to use weaker cryptographic algorithms than intended and makes it easier to decrypt communications, aka "XML Encryption backwards compatibility attack."
Open redirect vulnerability in Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Portal Platform before 5.2.0 allows remote attackers to redirect users to arbitrary web sites and conduct phishing attacks via a URL in the initialURI parameter.
Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Portal Platform before 5.2.0 allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via unspecified vectors.
If multiple applications use the same custom authorization module class name, and provide their own implementations of it, the first application to be loaded will have its implementation used for all applications using the same custom authorization module class name. A local attacker could use this flaw to deploy a malicious application that provides implementations of custom authorization modules that permit or deny user access according to rules supplied by the attacker.
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 default configuration of Red Hat JBoss Portal before 6.1.0 enables the JGroups diagnostics service with no authentication when a JGroups channel is started, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information (diagnostics) by accessing the service.
