Descriptions

Red Hat JBoss BPM Suite 6.3.x does not include the HTTPOnly flag in a Set-Cookie header for session cookies, which makes it easier for remote attackers to obtain potentially sensitive information via script access to the cookies.

Red Hat JBoss BPM Suite 6.3.x no incluye el indicador HTTPOnly en una cabecera Set-Cookie para cookies de sesión, lo que facilita a atacantes remotos obtener información potencialmente sensible a través del acceso con secuencia de comandos a las cookies

It was discovered that JBoss BRMS 6 and BPM Suite 6 are not setting HttpOnly flags on sensitive cookies. Remote attackers can access these cookies by using client-side scripts, usually through XSS.

Red Hat JBoss BRMS is a business rules management system for the management, storage, creation, modification, and deployment of JBoss Rules. This release of Red Hat JBoss BRMS 6.4.1 serves as a replacement for Red Hat JBoss BRMS 6.4.0, and includes bug fixes and enhancements, which are documented in the Release Notes document linked to in the References. Security Fix: It was found that the parsing of XMP and other XML formats in PDF by Apache PDFBox would expand entity references. A remote, unauthenticated attacker could use this flaw to read files accessible to the user running the application server, and potentially perform other more advanced XXE attacks.
