An updated jakarta-commons-fileupload package that fixes one security issue
is now available for Red Hat JBoss Web Server 1.0.2 for Red Hat Enterprise
Linux 5 and 6.

capability to your applications.
A flaw was found in the way the DiskFileItem class handled NULL characters

the DiskFileItem class, which will be deserialized on a server, could use
this flaw to write arbitrary content to any location on the server that is
accessible to the user running the application server process.

JBoss Enterprise Web Server installation (including all applications and
