CVE-2023-4061
Description
A flaw was found in wildfly-core. A management user could use the resolve-expression in the HAL Interface to read possible sensitive information from the Wildfly system. This issue could allow a malicious user to access the system and obtain possible sensitive information from the system.
Statement
This vulnerability requires a malicious user to previously have access to the system, especially access to the HAL interface via browser and logged with a management user who have access to the resolve-expression method, hence the moderate impact.
Mitigation
Wildfly administrators are recommended to use Vault, especially the Elytron subsystem, to store potential critical information such as DNS, IPs, and credentials.
Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) Score Details
Info alert:Important note
CVSS scores for open source components depend on vendor-specific factors (e.g. version or build chain). Therefore, Red Hat's score and impact rating can be different from NVD and other vendors. Red Hat remains the authoritative CVE Naming Authority (CNA) source for its products and services (see Red Hat classifications).
