Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform (JBEAP) 6.2.2, when using a Java Security Manager (JSM), does not properly apply permissions defined by a policy file, which causes applications to be granted the java.security.AllPermission permission and allows remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions.
CVE-2014-0093
MEDIUMCVSS v2 · 5.85.8—
EchelonGraph scoreLOW confidence
This CVE was only ever scored under CVSS v2.0. NVD CVSS v2.0 base 5.8 — v2 rates that MEDIUM (v2 bands: LOW 0.0–3.9 / MEDIUM 4.0–6.9 / HIGH 7.0–10.0; v2 has no CRITICAL band). Vector AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:N. CVSS v2 is an older, coarser metric than v3.1/v4.0 (no Scope, no User Interaction, no Attack Requirements), so it is not directly comparable to a v3 or v4 score. NVD has never re-scored this record under v3. EPSS predicts 2.1% exploitation probability in the next 30 days, which is reflected in EG Risk but does not lift the v2 base. Confidence: LOW.

Exploitation none (no KEV listing, exploit record or EPSS ≥ 50%) · Automatable unknown (not published for this CVE) · Technical impact unknown (not published for this CVE). Mission impact is CISA's Mission & Well-being decision point, and only you can judge it: high means the affected system is essential to your organisation's mission, or its compromise could cause irreversible harm to people.
