Title: Jboss EAP Cryptographic Issues Vulnerability

Overview:

Apache CXF 2.5.x before 2.5.10 2.6.x before CXF 2.6.7 and 2.7.x before CXF 2.7.4 does not verify that a specified cryptographic algorithm is allowed by the WS-SecurityPolicy AlgorithmSuite definition before decrypting which allows remote attackers to force CXF to use weaker cryptographic algorithms than intended and makes it easier to decrypt communications aka quotXML Encryption backwards compatibility attack.quot
