Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 35/100)
- The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 1.4% (FIRST EPSS); higher than 73.9% of all records.
- Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. A low-privileged account is enough. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- Fixed version: eap7-activemq-artemis (Red Hat:jboss_enterprise_application_platform:7.2::el6) 0:2.6.3-5.redhat_00020.1.el6eap; eap7-activemq-artemis-cli (Red Hat:jboss_enterprise_application_platform:7.2::el6) 0:2.6.3-5.redhat_00020.1.el6eap; eap7-activemq-artemis-commons (Red Hat:jboss_enterprise_application_platform:7.2::el6) 0:2.6.3-5.redhat_00020.1.el6eap.
- Severity is disputed: the assigning authority (CNA) scores it 5.4, NVD 8.8.
Low priority for now. Upgrade to eap7-activemq-artemis (Red Hat:jboss_enterprise_application_platform:7.2::el6) 0:2.6.3-5.redhat_00020.1.el6eap; eap7-activemq-artemis-cli (Red Hat:jboss_enterprise_application_platform:7.2::el6) 0:2.6.3-5.redhat_00020.1.el6eap; eap7-activemq-artemis-commons (Red Hat:jboss_enterprise_application_platform:7.2::el6) 0:2.6.3-5.redhat_00020.1.el6eap or later.
Generated automatically from the record's data: CVSS (NVD and CNA), CISA KEV and SSVC, FIRST EPSS, exploit sources, fixed versions. How we calculate it
Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS
It was discovered that the ElytronManagedThread in Wildfly's Elytron subsystem in versions from 11 to 16 stores a SecurityIdentity to run the thread as. These threads do not necessarily terminate if the keep alive time has not expired. This could allow a shared thread to use the wrong security identity when executing.

What does it mean in your environment?
The assessment above is generated automatically from the record's data; it doesn't know your environment. Our team verifies on your systems whether this vulnerability is actually exploitable and which mitigation is enough.
We use this product, ask for helpAffected systems
Is your version affected?
Pick the product and type the version you run. It's compared with this record's version ranges in your browser; the version isn't sent anywhere.

No known public exploit
No public exploit has been observed yet. That doesn't mean you're safe, only that the bar is a little higher.
