Description

The PooledInvokerServlet in JBoss EAP 4.x and 5.x allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted serialized payload.. It was discovered that the LegacyInvokerServlet is exposed on all network interfaces and deserializes objects sent to it. An attacker could use this flaw to cause remote code execution in the JVM running it.
