NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream eap7-wildfly package and not the eap7-wildfly package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:7 relevant fixed versions and status.

A flaw was found in all supported versions before wildfly-elytron-1.6.8.Final-redhat-00001, where the WildFlySecurityManager checks were bypassed when using custom security managers, resulting in an improper authorization. This flaw leads to information exposure by unauthenticated access to secure resources.
