CVE-2018-10683
In the case of a default installation without a security realm reference, an attacker can successfully access the server without authentication.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (1.74%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
An issue was discovered in WildFly 10.1.2.Final. In the case of a default installation without a security realm reference, an attacker can successfully access the server without authentication. NOTE: the Security Realms documentation in the product's Admin Guide indicates that "without a security realm reference" implies "effectively unsecured." The vendor explicitly supports these unsecured configurations because they have valid use cases during development
