3. Description:
The eap7-jboss-ec2-eap packages provide scripts for Red Hat JBoss
Enterprise Application Platform running on the Amazon Web Services (AWS)
Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2).
With this update, the eap7-jboss-ec2-eap package has been updated to ensure
compatibility with Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 7.0.7.
Refer to the JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 7.0.7 Release Notes,
linked to in the References section, for information on the most
significant bug fixes and enhancements included in this release.
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.
