Title
Apache TomEE: Authorization bypass in MicroProfile JWT role checks for JAX-RS resources
Summary
When MicroProfile JWT role-based access control is used, the access constraints of JAX-RS resources are not always enforced as declared: resources that declare an empty set of allowed roles are accessible to every caller, resource classes that inherit the same method from a common superclass share their constraints, and class-level constraints declared on a superclass are ignored. A remote attacker can invoke resources that should be denied to them, in some configurations without authentication. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 10.3.0 or 11.0.0-M2, which fix the issue.
Severity
No CVSS data available.
