Directory traversal vulnerability in the administration console in IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) 6.1 before 6.1.0.41, 7.0 before 7.0.0.19, and 8.0 before 8.0.0.1 allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files via a .. (dot dot) in the URI.

IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) 6.1 before 6.1.0.39 and 7.0 before 7.0.0.19 allows local users to obtain sensitive stack-trace information via a crafted Administration Console request.

Open redirect vulnerability in IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) 6.1 before 6.1.0.39 and 7.0 before 7.0.0.19 allows remote attackers to redirect users to arbitrary web sites and conduct phishing attacks via the logoutExitPage parameter.

The SOAP with Attachments API for Java (SAAJ) implementation in the Web Services component in IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) 6.1.0.x before 6.1.0.37 and 7.x before 7.0.0.15 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via encrypted SOAP messages.

The AuthCache purge implementation in the Security component in IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) 6.1.0.x before 6.1.0.37 and 7.x before 7.0.0.15 does not purge a user from the PlatformCredential cache, which might allow remote authenticated users to gain privileges by leveraging a group membership specified in an old RACF Object (aka RACO).

The Security component in IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) 6.1.0.x before 6.1.0.35 and 7.x before 7.0.0.15, when the Tivoli Integrated Portal / embedded WebSphere Application Server (TIP/eWAS) framework is used, does not properly delete AuthCache entries upon a logout, which might allow remote attackers to access the server by leveraging an unattended workstation.

The Security component in IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) 6.1.0.x before 6.1.0.35 and 7.x before 7.0.0.15 allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) by using a Lightweight Third-Party Authentication (LTPA) token for authentication.

Memory leak in org.apache.jasper.runtime.JspWriterImpl.response in the JavaServer Pages (JSP) component in IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) before 7.0.0.15 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) by accessing a JSP page of an application that is repeatedly stopped and restarted.

Memory leak in com.ibm.ws.jsp.runtime.WASJSPStrBufferImpl in the JavaServer Pages (JSP) component in IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) 6.1.0.x before 6.1.0.37 and 7.x before 7.0.0.15 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) by sending many JSP requests that trigger large responses.

The Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) Proxy in the HTTP Transport component in IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) before 7.0.0.15 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (worker thread exhaustion and UDP messaging outage) by sending many UDP messages.

Memory leak in the messaging engine in IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) before 7.0.0.15 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via network connections associated with a NULL return value from a synchronous JMS receive call.

The Service Integration Bus (SIB) messaging engine in IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) before 7.0.0.15 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon hang) by performing close operations via network connections to a queue manager.

Double free vulnerability in IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) 6.1.0.x before 6.1.0.35 and 7.x before 7.0.0.15 allows remote backend IIOP servers to cause a denial of service (S0C4 ABEND and storage corruption) by rejecting IIOP requests at opportunistic time instants, as demonstrated by requests associated with an ORB_Request::getACRWorkElementPtr function call.

The Administrative Console component in IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) 6.1.0.x before 6.1.0.31 and 7.x before 7.0.0.15 does not prevent modifications of the primary admin id, which allows remote authenticated administrators to bypass intended access restrictions by mapping a (1) user or (2) group to an administrator role.

The Security component in IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) before 7.0.0.15, when a J2EE 1.4 application is used, determines the security role mapping on the basis of the ibm-application-bnd.xml file instead of the intended ibm-application-bnd.xmi file, which might allow remote authenticated users to gain privileges in opportunistic circumstances by requesting a service.

The Administrative Scripting Tools component in IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) 6.1.0.x before 6.1.0.35 and 7.x before 7.0.0.15, when tracing is enabled, places wsadmin command parameters into the (1) wsadmin.traceout and (2) trace.log files, which allows local users to obtain potentially sensitive information by reading these files.

The Plug-in component in IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) before 7.0.0.15 does not properly handle trace requests, which has unspecified impact and attack vectors.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the Installation Verification Test (IVT) application in the Install component in IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) before 7.0.0.15 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via unspecified vectors.

The installer in IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) before 7.0.0.15 uses 777 permissions for a temporary log directory, which allows local users to have unintended access to log files via standard filesystem operations, a different vulnerability than CVE-2009-1173.

The Administrative Console component in IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) 6.1 before 6.1.0.35 and 7.0 before 7.0.0.15 does not properly restrict access to console servlets, which allows remote attackers to obtain potentially sensitive status information via a direct request.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the Servlet Engine / Web Container component in IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) 6.1 before 6.1.0.35 and 7.0 before 7.0.0.15 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via vectors related to the lack of an error page for an application.

Multiple cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerabilities in the Integrated Solutions Console (aka administrative console) in IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) 7.0.0.13 and earlier allow remote attackers to hijack the authentication of administrators for requests that disable certain security options via an Edit action to console/adminSecurityDetail.do followed by a save action to console/syncworkspace.do.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the Administration Console in IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) 6.1 before 6.1.0.29 and 7.1 before 7.0.0.7 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via unspecified vectors.

The Java Naming and Directory Interface (JNDI) implementation in IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) 6.0 before 6.0.2.39, 6.1 before 6.1.0.29, and 7.0 before 7.0.0.7 does not properly restrict access to UserRegistry object methods, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information via a crafted method call.
