CVE-2025-23367

Executive Summary

Wildfly Server Role Based Access Control (RBAC) provider flaw allows users lacking proper privileges to suspend or resume the server. The Suspend and Resume handlers omit authorization checks, enabling Monitor or Auditor roles to perform management operations beyond their intended read‑only permissions. This could lead to unauthorized service disruption and potential privilege escalation within the application server.


Authoritative CVE Metadata - CVSS Base Score: 6.5 (MEDIUM) - Published: 2025-01-30T15:15:18.610 - Last Modified: 2026-08-19T07:16:23.943

Original Description: A flaw was found in the Wildfly Server Role Based Access Control (RBAC) provider. When authorization to control management operations is secured using the Role Based Access Control provider, a user without the required privileges can suspend or resume the server. A user with a Monitor or Auditor role is supposed to have only read access permissions and should not be able to suspend the server. The vulnerability is caused by the Suspend and Resume handlers not performing authorization checks to validate whether the current user has the required permissions to proceed with the action.
