Summary
Red Hat Security Advisory: Red Hat JBoss Web Framework Kit 2.6.0 update

Notes

Topic
Red Hat JBoss Web Framework Kit 2.6.0, which fixes two security issues, various bugs, and adds enhancements, is now available from the Red Hat Customer Portal. The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having Moderate security impact. Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base scores, which give detailed severity ratings, are available for each vulnerability from the CVE links in the References section.
Details
Red Hat JBoss Web Framework Kit combines popular open source web frameworks into a single solution for Java applications. This release serves as a replacement for Red Hat JBoss Web Framework Kit 2.5.0, and includes bug fixes and enhancements. Refer to the 2.6.0 Release Notes for information on the most significant of these changes, available shortly from https://access.redhat.com/documentation/ This release also fixes the following security issues: It was discovered that bouncycastle leaked timing information when decrypting TLS/SSL protocol encrypted records when CBC-mode cipher suites were used. A remote attacker could possibly use this flaw to retrieve plain text from the encrypted packets by using a TLS/SSL server as a padding oracle. (CVE-2013-1624) It was found that Mojarra JavaServer Faces did not properly escape user-supplied content in certain circumstances. Contents of outputText tags and raw EL expressions that immediately follow script or style elements were not escaped. A remote attacker could use a specially crafted URL to execute arbitrary web script in the user's browser. (CVE-2013-5855) All users of Red Hat JBoss Web Framework Kit 2.5.0 as provided from the Red Hat Customer Portal are advised to upgrade to Red Hat JBoss Web Framework Kit 2.6.0.
