The default configuration of the deployment descriptor (aka web.xml) in picketlink-sts.war in (1) the security_saml quickstart, (2) the webservice_proxy_security quickstart, (3) the web-console application, (4) the http-invoker application, (5) the gpd-deployer application, (6) the jbpm-console application, (7) the contract application, and (8) the uddi-console application in JBoss Enterprise SOA Platform before 5.0.2 contains GET and POST http-method elements, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions via a crafted HTTP request.

Detection & IOCsextracted from sources · hover to see the quote
- →Authentication bypass is triggered via a crafted HTTP request exploiting GET and POST http-method elements present in web.xml deployment descriptors of affected JBoss SOA Platform web applications ↗
- →The vulnerable artifact is picketlink-sts.war; presence of this WAR in a JBoss Enterprise SOA Platform deployment before 5.0.2 indicates exposure ↗
- →Audit web.xml files in affected applications for the presence of <http-method>GET</http-method> and <http-method>POST</http-method> elements inside security-constraint blocks, which are the misconfiguration enabling the bypass ↗
- →Applications derived from the security_saml quickstart may also be vulnerable; review any custom applications built from that template for the same web.xml misconfiguration ↗
- ·The vulnerability exists only in JBoss Enterprise SOA Platform versions before 5.0.2; version 5.0.2 GA and later have the misconfiguration removed ↗
- ·The root cause is a default web.xml misconfiguration (presence of GET/POST http-method elements in security constraints), not a code vulnerability; patching requires removing those elements from all affected web.xml files ↗
