Red Hat Security Advisory: Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 7.1 security update

Notes

Topic
An update is now available for Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 7.1 for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7. Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact of Important. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability from the CVE link(s) in the References section.
Details
Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform is a platform for Java applications based on WildFly. This asynchronous patch is a security update for slf4j package in Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 7.1. Security Fix(es): * An XML deserialization vulnerability was discovered in slf4j's EventData which accepts xml serialized string and can lead to arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2018-8088) The Simple Logging Facade for Java or (SLF4J) is a simple facade for various logging APIs allowing the end-user to plug in the desired implementation at deployment time. SLF4J also allows for a gradual migration path away from Jakarta Commons Logging (JCL). Red Hat would like to thank Chris McCown for reporting CVE-2018-8088.
