Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2020-14299 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Redhat Jboss Enterprise Application Platform. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-14299/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-14299/index.md)","id":"CVE-2020-14299","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-14299/index.md","name":"CVE-2020-14299","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-vx2g-h7fh-g3vj"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["security_bypass","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"JBoss EAP","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Attackers can bypass authentication in JBoss EAP using arbitrary credentials when legacy security realms are configured, potentially impacting system availability.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"auth_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"redhat","cpe":[{"product":"jboss_enterprise_application_platform","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"openshift_application_runtimes","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"single_sign-on","vendor":"redhat"}],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-287","name":"Improper Authentication"}],"description":"A flaw was found in JBoss EAP, where the authentication configuration is set-up using a legacy SecurityRealm, to delegate to a legacy PicketBox SecurityDomain, and then reloaded to admin-only mode.
