Description

Get requests in JBoss Enterprise Application Platform (EAP) 7 disclose internal IP addresses to remote attackers.. It was found that when issuing a GET request which results in a 302 redirect, and when the request header 'Host' field was not set, the response header field 'Location' contains the internal IP address of the server. An attacker could use this disclose information which they are not authorized to access.
