Comment 7 Marc Schoenefeld 2011-04-01 15:18:01 UTC
JBoss Seam2 does not properly block access to EL constructs in page exception handling. This allowed arbitrary Java methods to be executed. A remote attacker could use this flaw to execute arbitrary code via a URL, containing appended, specially-crafted expression language parameters, provided to certain applications based on the JBoss Seam framework. 

Note: A properly configured and enabled Java Security Manager would prevent exploitation of this flaw.
