Detailsinfo

A vulnerability, which was classified as problematic, was found in Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform and JBoss Enterprise Application Platform Expansion Pack (the affected version is unknown). This affects an unknown code of the component Enterprise JavaBeans. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a deserialization vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-502. The product deserializes untrusted data without sufficiently verifying that the resulting data will be valid. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The summary by CVE is:

A security flaw exists in WildFly and JBoss Enterprise Application Platform (EAP) within the Enterprise JavaBeans (EJB) remote invocation mechanism. This vulnerability stems from untrusted data deserialization handled by JBoss Marshalling. This flaw allows an attacker to send a specially crafted serialized object, leading to remote code execution without requiring authentication.

It is possible to read the advisory at access.redhat.com. This vulnerability is uniquely identified as CVE-2025-2251 since 03/12/2025. The exploitability is told to be difficult. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. Additional levels of successful authentication are needed for exploitation. The technical details are unknown and an exploit is not publicly available. The pricing for an exploit might be around USD $5k-$25k at the moment (estimation calculated on 01/04/2026).
