DescriptionAuthentication configured for an EJB JAX-WS endpoint in the TomEE deployment descriptor is not enforced when the endpoint is published within an existing web application. A remote unauthenticated attacker can invoke the web service operations, unless the application protects the endpoint with its own web.xml security constraints or EJB method permissions. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 10.3.0 or 11.0.0-M2, which fix the issue.
