JBoss CommunityProjects (including WildFlyAs): OpenSSL HeartBleed Vulnerability

I want to take this post to summarize that "JBoss community projects including WildFly Application Server are not directly affected by the OpenSSL HeartBleed Vulnerability".


JBossWeb APR

JBossWeb APR functionality requires OpenSSL 0.9.7 or 0.9.8 which is not affected by this vulnerability.
https://docs.jboss.org/jbossweb/2.1.x/apr.html


I have consulted the Red Hat Security Response Team before posting this note. We continue to monitor the situation.
Feel free to report any anomalies using http://www.jboss.org/security

We do recommend taking the appropriate precautions.

Please use the links in the references section for gauging indirect exposure to the HeartBleed vulnerability.

Indirect exposure may be possible:
  • Maybe you have a web server in front of JBoss/WildFly Application Server that may be affected.
  • Maybe your operating system on which the JBoss community projects are running may be affected.
  • Maybe you have OpenSSL v1.0.1 used by your application infrastructure.
