CVE-2026-17614Network attack vector

Authenticated file disclosure via unchecked repository paths

Published Aug 4, 2026 · Updated Aug 4, 2026

Path traversal in Red Hat JBoss EAP 7 and 8 and Single Sign-On 7 domain mode allows remote authenticated users to read domain-controller files. The LocalFileRepository.getFile() and getConfigurationFile() methods resolve slave-supplied relative paths without checking that the result stays beneath repository or configuration roots. Possession of a slave host-controller secret or control of a slave is required; readable files include configurations, keystores, and credentials, while supported EAP XP configurations exclude domain mode.
