It was found that when Artemis and HornetQ before 2.4.0 are configured with UDP discovery and JGroups discovery a huge byte array is created when receiving an unexpected multicast message. This may result in a heap memory exhaustion, full GC, or OutOfMemoryError.

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

  - It was found that when Artemis and HornetQ before 2.4.0 are configured with UDP discovery and JGroups
    discovery a huge byte array is created when receiving an unexpected multicast message. This may result in
    a heap memory exhaustion, full GC, or OutOfMemoryError. (CVE-2017-12174)

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 5 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2018:0271 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 6.4.19 serves as a replacement for Red Hat     JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 6.4.18, and includes bug fixes and enhancements, which are     documented in the Release Notes document linked to in the References.

    Security Fix(es):

    * It was found that when Artemis and HornetQ are configured with UDP discovery and JGroups discovery a     huge byte array is created when receiving an unexpected multicast message. This may result in a heap     memory exhaustion, full GC, or OutOfMemoryError. (CVE-2017-12174)

    * A vulnerability was discovered in Tomcat where if a servlet context was configured with readonly=false     and HTTP PUT requests were allowed, an attacker could upload a JSP file to that context and achieve code     execution. (CVE-2017-12617)

    * A vulnerability was found in the way RemoteMessageChannel, introduced in jboss-remoting versions     3.3.10.Final-redhat-1, reads from an empty buffer. An attacker could use this flaw to cause denial of     service via high CPU caused by an infinite loop. (CVE-2018-1041)
