Description Jason Shepherd 2016-07-22 06:03:20 UTC

Escalation of priveleges can occur when a Domain Controller process is managing slave Host Controllers running EAP 6.2, 6.3 or 6.4.

The domain controller will not propagate its administrative RBAC configuration to those slaves, resulting in the slaves (and the servers they manage) granting administrators full administrative privileges.
