Description

Red Hat JBoss Operations Network is a Middleware management solution that provides a single point of control to deploy, manage, and monitor JBoss Enterprise Middleware, applications, and services.

This JBoss Operations Network 3.3.5 release serves as a replacement for JBoss Operations Network 3.3.4, and includes several bug fixes. Refer to the Customer Portal page linked in the References section for information on the most significant of these changes.

The following security issues are also fixed with this release:

It was found that the Apache commons-collections library permitted code execution when deserializing objects involving a specially constructed chain of classes. A remote attacker could use this flaw to execute arbitrary code with the permissions of the application using the commons- collections library. (CVE-2015-7501)

A flaw was discovered in the way applications using Groovy used the standard Java serialization mechanism. A remote attacker could use a specially crafted serialized object that would execute code directly when deserialized. All applications which rely on serialization and do not isolate the code which deserializes objects are subject to this vulnerability. (CVE-2015-3253)

All users of JBoss Operations Network 3.3.4 as provided from the Red Hat Customer Portal are advised to upgrade to JBoss Operations Network 3.3.5.
