DESCRIPTION:
Red Hat has issued an update for JBoss Enterprise Application
Platform. This fixes a security issue, which can be exploited by
malicious, local users to disclose potentially sensitive
information.

The security issue is caused due to the /var/cache/jboss-ec2-eap
directory having world-readable permissions and can be exploited to
disclose e.g. Amazon Web Services (AWS) credentials.

SOLUTION:
Updated packages are available via Red Hat Network.
