Summary
The request handler in JBossWS in JBoss Enterprise Application Platform (aka JBoss EAP or JBEAP) 4.2 before 4.2.0.CP06 and 4.3 before 4.3.0.CP04 does not properly validate the resource path during a request for a WSDL file with a custom web-service endpoint, which allows remote attackers to read arbitrary XML files via a crafted request.
