CVE-2005-4709

Medium severity, CVSS 5.0. EPSS: 2.2% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

The popSubjectContext method in the SecurityAssociation class in JBoss Enterprise Java Beans (EJB) 3.0 RC3 maintains the threadPrincipal and threadCredential values from a previous client's authentication after termination of a client session, which allows remote attackers to gain the roles of an arbitrary previous client who had the same JBoss server thread.
