The GateIn Portal Export / Import Gadget allows an export zip to be uploaded and imported to a site without authentication. A remote attacker could use this flaw to modify the content of a site, remove the site or modify access controls applied to portlets in the site.
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.
The GateIn Portal Export / Import Gadget is vulnerable to XXE (XML eXternal Entity) attacks. If the XML provided to the import gadget contains an external XML entity, this XML entity will be resolved. A remote attacker who can access the import gadget could use this flaw to read files in the context of the user running the application server.
Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in the GateIn Portal in JBoss Enterprise Portal Platform 5.2.2 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.
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.
