Topic: JBoss EAP XP 6.0.3.GA release on the EAP 8.1 base. See references for release notes.
Details: This is a cumulative patch release zip for the JBoss EAP XP 6.0.3 runtime distribution for use with EAP 8.1.5. Security Fix(es): * vertx-core: static handler component cache can be manipulated to deny the access to static files [eapxp-6] (CVE-2026-1002) For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.

A flaw was found in Vert.x. The Web static handler component cache can be manipulated to deny the access to static files served by the handler using specifically crafted request URIs, preventing legitimate users from accessing static files with an HTTP 404 response.

CWE-444 - Inconsistent Interpretation of HTTP Requests ('HTTP Request/Response Smuggling')
Vendor Fix Before applying the update, make sure all previously released errata relevant to your system have been applied. Also, back up your existing installation, including all applications, configuration files, databases and database settings. For details on how to apply this update, refer to: https://access.redhat.com/articles/11258 https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:5482
Workaround To mitigate this vulnerability, consider disabling the static handler cache by configuring the StaticHandler instance with setCachingEnabled(false), for example: ~~~ StaticHandler staticHandler = StaticHandler.create().setCachingEnabled(false); ~~~
