Summary
The platform-mbean component of Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform and related Red Hat products fails to perform role-based access control checks in the read-resource handler for the runtime management resource (CWE-862). An authenticated user with low privileges, such as one holding the Monitor role, can read sensitive system properties and JVM configuration details that should be restricted.

Description from the CNA
A flaw was found in the platform-mbean component of JBoss EAP, which provides management access to JVM-level metrics and configurations. The issue occurs because the handler for the read-resource operation on the runtime management resource fails to perform required Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) checks. This allows an authenticated user with low-privileged access, such as the Monitor role, to view sensitive system properties and JVM configuration details that should be restricted.
