Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Wildfly-elytron (affected versions not specified)

Description A flaw was found in Wildfly-elytron, where it uses java.util.Arrays.equals in several places, which is unsafe and vulnerable to timing attacks. This allows an attacker to access secure information or impersonate an authenticated user. To compare values securely, java.security.MessageDigest.isEqual should be used instead.

Recommendations At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability. As a temporary workaround, consider replacing java.util.Arrays.equals with java.security.MessageDigest.isEqual to securely compare values and minimize the risk of exploitation.
