Details
As written in the advisory (Markdown source, shown as plain text).
wildfly-elytron: possible timing attacks via use of unsafe comparator. A flaw was found in Wildfly-elytron. Wildfly-elytron uses `java.util.Arrays.equals` in several places, which is unsafe and vulnerable to timing attacks. To compare values securely, use `java.security.MessageDigest.isEqual` instead. This flaw allows an attacker to access secure information or impersonate an authed user.
