Description
A flaw was found in Wildfly. A remote unauthenticated attacker can trigger OutOfMemoryError as CSIv2Util's GSS token decoder reads an attacker-controlled length field without bounds checking and attempts to allocate a byte array of that size.

AI Analysis

Impact

A flaw in Wildfly allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to cause an OutOfMemoryError by sending a specially crafted CSIv2Util GSS token that contains an unchecked length field. The decoder parses the length without bounds checking and attempts to allocate a byte array of that size, exhausting memory and resulting in a service crash. This denial of service can be triggered purely over the network and does not require any authentication.

Affected Systems

The vulnerability affects Red Hat Fuse 7, Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 7.4.25, Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 8, Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform Expansion Pack, and Red Hat Single Sign-On 7. The specific affected version is 7.4.25 for the JBoss Enterprise Application Platform; other product versions are not specified beyond these product families.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 7.5 indicates a high severity. The EPSS score is less than 1%, indicating a low but non‑zero exploitation probability, but the vulnerability can be exploited by an unauthenticated remote attacker, making it highly accessible. It is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. The likely attack vector is over the network, directing traffic to the IIoP listener. An attacker can repeatedly trigger OOM conditions, disrupting availability of the application server.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Apply the vendor patch or upgrade to the latest version of the affected products as announced in the Red Hat advisory.
  • If the IIoP listener is not required, disable or remove it from the Wildfly configuration to eliminate the attack surface.
  • Implement monitoring or resource limits to quickly detect and respond to OutOfMemoryError conditions in production environments.
