NVD Description

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

The Management Console in Red Hat Enterprise Application Platform before 6.4.4 and WildFly (formerly JBoss Application Server) does not send an X-Frame-Options HTTP header, which makes it easier for remote attackers to conduct clickjacking attacks via a crafted web page that contains a (1) FRAME or (2) IFRAME element.
