2. Description:
Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 7 is an application server
that serves as a middleware platform and is built on open standards and
compliant with the Java EE 7 specification.
This release of Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 7.0.4 serves
as a replacement for Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 7.0.3,
and includes bug fixes and enhancements, which are documented in the
Release Notes, linked to in the References section.
Security Fix(es):
* An EAP feature to download server log files allows logs to be available
via GET requests making them vulnerable to cross-origin attacks. An
attacker could trigger the user's browser to request the log files
consuming enough resources that normal server functioning could be
impaired. (CVE-2016-8627)
* It was discovered that when configuring RBAC and marking information as
sensitive, users with a Monitor role are able to view the sensitive
information. (CVE-2016-7061)
The CVE-2016-8627 issue was discovered by Darran Lofthouse and Brian
Stansberry (Red Hat).
