Red Hat Security Advisory 2017-1409-01 - Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform is a platform for Java applications based on the JBoss Application Server. This release of Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 7.0.6 serves as a replacement for Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 7.0.5, and includes bug fixes and enhancements, which are documented in the Release Notes document linked to in the References. Security Fix: It was discovered that under certain conditions RESTEasy could be forced to parse a request with YamlProvider, resulting in unmarshalling of potentially untrusted data. An attacker could possibly use this flaw execute arbitrary code with the permissions of the application using RESTEasy.

of Moderate. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which
gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability from
the CVE link(s) in the References section.
2. Description:
Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform is a platform for Java
applications based on the JBoss Application Server.
This release of Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 7.0.6 serves
as a replacement for Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 7.0.5,
and includes bug fixes and enhancements, which are documented in the
Release Notes document linked to in the References.
Security Fix(es):
* It was discovered that under certain conditions RESTEasy could be forced
to parse a request with YamlProvider, resulting in unmarshalling of
potentially untrusted data. An attacker could possibly use this flaw
execute arbitrary code with the permissions of the application using
RESTEasy. (CVE-2016-9606)
* It was found that the log file viewer in Red Hat JBoss Enterprise
Application 6 and 7 allows arbitrary file read to authenticated user via
path traversal. (CVE-2017-2595)
* It was discovered that the code that parsed the HTTP request line
permitted invalid characters. This could be exploited, in conjunction with
a proxy that also permitted the invalid characters but with a different
interpretation, to inject data into the HTTP response. By manipulating the
HTTP response the attacker could poison a web-cache, perform an XSS attack,
or obtain sensitive information from requests other than their own.
(CVE-2017-2666)
* It was found that with non-clean TCP close, Websocket server gets into
infinite loop on every IO thread, effectively causing DoS. (CVE-2017-2670)
Red Hat would like to thank Moritz Bechler (AgNO3 GmbH & Co. KG) for
