Apache TomEE: Authorization bypass in MicroProfile JWT role checks for JAX-RS resources
Severity and exploitation
KEV coverage does not rule out exploitation.
Severity
unknownCVSS measures technical severity, not the likelihood of an attack.

What this means
Apache TomEE versions 7.1.0 to 10.0.0-M1 and 10.0.0-M1 to 10.3.0 and 11.0.0-M1 to 11.0.0-M2 have an authorization bypass weakness, allowing remote attackers to invoke restricted JAX-RS resources. The issue occurs when using MicroProfile JWT role-based access control. Attackers may access resources without authentication in some configurations.

Public exploit evidence

Original source description
Read the full publisher description
When MicroProfile JWT role-based access control is used, the access constraints of JAX-RS resources are not always enforced as declared: resources that declare an empty set of allowed roles are accessible to every caller, resource classes that inherit the same method from a common superclass share their constraints, and class-level constraints declared on a superclass are ignored. A remote attacker can invoke resources that should be denied to them, in some configurations without authentication. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 10.3.0 or 11.0.0-M2, which fix the issue.
