WFLYUT0087 error when configuring multiple hosts with unspecified default web module in the JBoss EAP 7.1/7.2

Issue

The following configuration is working fine in JBoss EAP 7.0:

<host name="www.host1.com" alias="alias1">
    <filter-ref name="server-header"/>
    <filter-ref name="x-powered-by-header"/>
</host>
<host name="www.host2.com" alias="alias2">
    <filter-ref name="server-header"/>
    <filter-ref name="x-powered-by-header"/>
</host>

but the following error is seeing in the host configuration after upgrading to JBoss EAP 7.1.x/7.2.x:

ERROR [org.jboss.as.controller.management-operation] (ServerService Thread Pool -- 40) WFLYCTL0013: Operation ("add") failed - address: ([
