=====================================================================

1. Summary:

An update is now available for Red Hat JBoss Fuse and Red Hat JBoss A-MQ.

Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact
of Important. 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 Fuse, based on Apache ServiceMix, provides a small-footprint,
flexible, open source enterprise service bus and integration platform. Red
Hat JBoss A-MQ, based on Apache ActiveMQ, is a standards compliant
messaging system that is tailored for use in mission critical applications.

This patch is an update to Red Hat JBoss Fuse 6.3 and Red Hat JBoss A-MQ
6.3. It includes bug fixes and enhancements, which are documented in the
readme.txt file included with the patch files.

Security Fix(es):

* It was reported that Elasticsearch had vulnerabilities in the Groovy
scripting engine, which allow an attacker to construct scripts that escape
the sandbox and execute shell commands as the user running the
Elasticsearch Java VM. (CVE-2015-1427)

* It was found that a flaw in Apache groovy library allows remote code
execution wherever deserialization occurs in the application. It is
possible for an attacker to craft a special serialized object that will
execute code directly when deserialized. All applications which rely on
serialization and do not isolate the code which deserializes objects are
subject to this vulnerability. (CVE-2016-6814)

* It was found that Apache Commons HttpClient does not verify that the
server hostname matches a domain name in the subject's Common Name (CN) or
subjectAltName field of the X.509 certificate, which allows
man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof SSL servers via an arbitrary valid
certificate. (CVE-2012-5783)

* It was found that swagger-ui contains a cross site scripting (XSS)
vulnerability in the key names in the JSON document. An attacker could use
this flaw to supply a key name with script tags which could cause arbitrary
code execution. Additionally it is possible to load the arbitrary JSON
files remotely via the URL query-string parameter. (CVE-2016-1000229)

* A vulnerability was found in FormattedServiceListWriter in Apache CXF
HTTP transport module that could allow an attacker to inject unexpected
matrix parameters into the request URL. On a successful injection these
matrix parameters will find their way back to the client in the services
list page which represents an XSS risk to the client. (CVE-2016-6812)

* Apache CXF JAX-RS implementation provides a number of Atom
MessageBodyReaders. These readers use Apache Abdera Parser to parse Atom
feeds or Entries, with this Parser expanding XML entities by default. It
was found that this represents a major XXE risk. (CVE-2016-8739)

* A path traversal issue was found in Spark version 2.5 and potentially
earlier versions. The vulnerability resides in the functionality to serve
static files where there's no protection against directory traversal
attacks. This could allow attackers access to private files including
sensitive data. (CVE-2016-9177)

* It was found that the camel-snakeyaml component is exploitable for code
execution. An attacker could use this vulnerability to send specially
crafted payload to a camel-snakeyaml endpoint and causing a remote code
execution attack. (CVE-2017-3159)

3. Solution:

Before applying the update, back up your existing installation, including
all applications, configuration files, databases and database settings, and
so on.

It is recommended to halt the server by stopping the JBoss Application
Server process before installing this update; after installing the update,
restart the server by starting the JBoss Application Server process.

log in to download the update).
