Detailed vulnerability description
The vulnerability allows a local user to disclose sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to improper access control in the AdminServer RMI interface when handling file access methods. A local user can invoke exposed RMI methods to disclose sensitive information.
The issue affects validated OS users because the AdminServer process performs file access with its own delegated authority, which can bypass normal OS-level file permission checks.
