CVE-2009-0027

Status: ModifiedMedium (5)—

The request handler in JBossWS in JBoss Enterprise Application Platform (aka JBoss EAP or JBEAP) 4.2 before 4.2.0.CP06 and 4.3 before 4.3.0.CP04 does not properly validate the resource path during a request for a WSDL file with a custom web-service endpoint, which allows remote attackers to read arbitrary XML files via a crafted request.

CVSS

Version: 2.0
Vector: AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:N
Base score: 5

Exploitation probability (EPSS)

Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 1.80%
Percentile among all scored CVEs: 78
Score date: 10/7/2026

EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).
