Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Oracle GlassFish Server version 3.1.2

Description The issue is related to insufficient access control in the Java Server Faces component of Oracle GlassFish Server, allowing an unauthenticated attacker with network access via HTTP to compromise the server. Successful attacks require human interaction and can result in unauthorized access to critical data, modification or deletion of data, as well as partial denial of service.

Recommendations For Oracle GlassFish Server version 3.1.2, consider restricting access to the Java Server Faces component until a patch is available. As a temporary workaround, limit the ability of remote attackers to interact with the server via HTTP to minimize the risk of exploitation.
