RHEL 6 : Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 7.0.7 on RHEL 6 (Important) (RHSA-2017:1834)

critical Nessus Plugin ID 102139

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Red Hat host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 6 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2017:1834 advisory.

 Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform is a platform for Java applications based on the JBoss Application Server.

 This release of Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 7.0.7 serves as a replacement for Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 7.0.6, and includes bug fixes and enhancements, which are documented in the Release Notes linked to in the References.

 Security Fix(es):

 * A deserialization flaw was discovered in jackson-databind which could allow an unauthenticated user to perform code execution by sending maliciously crafted input to the readValue method of the ObjectMapper.
 (CVE-2017-7525)

 * It was found that use of a JMS ObjectMessage does not safely handle user-supplied data when deserializing objects. A remote attacker could use this flaw to execute arbitrary code with the permissions of the application using the JMS ObjectMessage. (CVE-2016-4978)

 Red Hat would like to thank Liao Xinxi (NSFOCUS) for reporting CVE-2017-7525.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Red Hat Enterprise Linux security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Update the affected packages.
