CVE-2012-0874 Public exploit EPSS 15.6%

The (1) JMXInvokerHAServlet and (2) EJBInvokerHAServlet invoker servlets in JBoss Enterprise Application Platform…

Summary

The JMXInvokerHAServlet and EJBInvokerHAServlet invoker servlets in JBoss Enterprise Application Platform, Web Platform, BRMS Platform and SOA Platform do not require authentication by default in certain profiles. Exploitation requires that the interceptor lacks a properly configured second layer of authentication, or that another vulnerability is used to bypass that layer, and would let a remote attacker invoke MBean methods and execute arbitrary code.

Official description · CVE.org

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.
