Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform (EAP) en versiones anteriores a 6.4.5 no autoriza adecuadamente el acceso para apagar el servidor, lo que permite a usuarios remotos autenticados con el rol Monitor, Deployer o Auditor causar una denegación de servicio a través de vectores no especificados.

It was found that JBoss EAP did not properly authorize a user performing a shut down. A remote user with the Monitor, Deployer, or Auditor role could use this flaw to shut down the EAP server, which is an action restricted to admin users.
