In short

The JMX-Console web application in JBoss fails to protect against requests using HTTP methods other than GET and POST, allowing attackers to bypass access controls and reach protected functions.

Technical detail

The JMX-Console application implements access control checks only for GET and POST HTTP methods (CWE-749: Improper Restriction of Rendered UI Layers or Frames). An attacker can bypass these restrictions by sending requests using alternative HTTP methods (e.g., PUT, DELETE, HEAD, OPTIONS) to access the same resources, potentially leading to unauthorized configuration changes or information disclosure.
