    Summary: Richfaces vulnerable to arbitrary code execution

    Details: The RichFaces Framework 3.X through 3.3.4 is vulnerable to Expression Language (EL) injection via the UserResource resource. A remote, unauthenticated attacker could exploit this to execute arbitrary code using a chain of java serialized objects via `org.ajax4jsf.resource.UserResource$UriData`.
