NVD Description

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

admin-cli before versions 3.0.0.alpha25, 2.2.1.cr2 is vulnerable to an EAP feature to download server log files that allows logs to be available via GET requests making them vulnerable to cross-origin attacks. An attacker could trigger the user's browser to request the log files consuming enough resources that normal server functioning could be impaired.
