CAS Adopters,

Be advised that most CAS deployments are vulnerable to the widely publicized not-a-defect-in-CAS-itself JVM defect CVE-2010-4476. You should take immediate action to mitigate this vulnerability in your production environments.

Notification posted to website:

http://www.jasig.org/cas/news/cve-2010-4476

(This is the same issue as described in the recent "Important! Critical bug in all Java versions" thread. Posting as a new thread to draw attention to the issue and to the Jasig CAS product response.)

Thanks are due to Robert Oschwald who raised that thread, to Marvin Addison for testing, and to the CAS Steering Committee for coordinating composing and posting a CAS-as-product response to this issue.

Feedback welcome on the website news entry, which doubtless can be improved, but I hope it will help to get the word out to encourage mitigation of this serious issue.

Best wishes,

Andrew
