>         Symantec discovered a flaw in the DeploymentFileRepository 
>         class of the JBoss application server. A remote attacker who 
>         is able to access the console manager could read or write to 
>         files with the permissions of the JBoss user. This could 
>         potentially lead to arbitrary code execution as the JBoss 
>         user. (CVE-2006-5750) 
>         Please note that the JBoss console manager should always be 
>         secured prior to deployment. By default, the JBoss installer 
>         gives users the ability to password protect the console 
>         manager, limiting an attack using this vulnerability to 
>         authorised users. These steps can also be performed manually. 
>         http://wiki.jboss.org/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=SecureJBoss
>         This vulnerability afffects all JBoss releases from v3.2.4 to v.4.0.5
