Description
The admin service of the standalone OpenEJB server accepts stop requests without any authentication. Any local user or process able to connect to the admin port can stop the server, leading to denial of service; the admin service is enabled by default in the standalone server and bound to the loopback interface. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 10.3.0 or 11.0.0-M2, which fix the issue.
