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.

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.

The W3C XML Encryption Standard, as used in the JBoss Web Services (JBossWS) component in JBoss Enterprise Portal Platform before 5.2.2 and other products, when using block ciphers in cipher-block chaining (CBC) mode, allows remote attackers to obtain plaintext data via a chosen-ciphertext attack on SOAP responses, aka "character encoding pattern attack."

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.

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 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.
