CVE-2020-11969
If Apache TomEE is configured to use the embedded ActiveMQ broker, and the broker URI includes the useJMX=true parameter, a JMX port is opened on TCP port 1099, which does not include authentication.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (4.12%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
