Openjdk-orb: incomplete fix for cve-2026-15560,unauthed class loading via iiop in eap
Impact
Openjdk-orb in Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 7 and 8 has an incomplete fix for CVE-2026-15560, allowing unauthenticated class loading via IIOP. An attacker can load arbitrary classes from a remote URL in the server JVM. The weakness is due to inclusion of functionality from an untrusted control sphere.
Summarized by @cf/meta/llama-3.3-70b-instruct-fp8-fast. Verify details against the original sources.What to do
To mitigate this flaw, restrict access to the IIOP service (TCP port 3528) to trusted networks using firewall rules, or disable the IIOP subsystem if CORBA is not required by deployed applications.
To restrict or remove external access to port 3528 using firewalld:
firewall-cmd --permanent --remove-port=3528/tcp
firewall-cmd --reload
Warning: Reloading the firewall configuration may briefly interrupt network traffic. If removing the iiop-openjdk subsystem from the JBoss EAP configuration (standalone.xml or domain.xml), a full server restart is required, causing temporary service downtime.
Caveats: Blocking port 3528 or disabling the IIOP subsystem will prevent legitimate remote clients from communicating over IIOP/CORBA.

when EAP runs with -secmgr, the openjdk-orb's JDKBridge honours attacker-supplied CDR codebase URLs during object unmarshalling on :3528, allowing an unauthenticated attacker to load and instantiate arbitrary classes from a remote URL in the server JVM before EJB security interceptors run.
