Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform (EAP) before 6.1.0 and JBoss Portal before 6.1.0 does not load the implementation of a custom authorization module for a new application when an implementation is already loaded and the modules share class names, which allows local users to control certain applications' authorization decisions via a crafted application.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This issue affects older Red Hat JBoss EAP and JBoss Portal deployments before 6.1.0. A local user who can introduce a crafted application may influence authorization decisions in some applications when custom authorization modules share class names. Business risk depends heavily on who can deploy applications locally. Exposure is most likely in legacy Red Hat JBoss EAP or JBoss Portal instances before 6.1.0, especially where local users or administrators can deploy applications using custom authorization modules. Treat as a legacy platform exposure requiring targeted remediation, not an internet-wide emergency. Prioritize systems where untrusted local users or delegated teams can deploy applications. Mitigation focus: Identify JBoss EAP and JBoss Portal deployments before 6.1.0.; Review Red Hat advisories RHSA-2013:0833, RHSA-2013:0834, and RHSA-2013:1437.; Apply the relevant Red Hat fixed packages or upgrade guidance..
