IBM WebSphere Application Server 7.0, 8.0, 8.5, and 9.0 could provide weaker than expected security when using the Administrative Console. An authenticated remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to possibly gain elevated privileges.

IBM WebSphere Application Server 7.0, 8.0, 8.5, and 9.0 might create files using the default permissions instead of the customized permissions when custom startup scripts are used. A local attacker could exploit this to gain access to files with an unknown impact. IBM X-Force ID: 127153.

IBM WebSphere Application Server 7.0, 8.0, 8.5, and 9.0 is vulnerable to cross-site scripting. This vulnerability allows users to embed arbitrary JavaScript code in the Web UI thus altering the intended functionality potentially leading to credentials disclosure within a trusted session. IBM X-Force ID: 127151.

IBM WebSphere Application Server Proxy Server or On-demand-router (ODR) 7.0, 8.0, 8.5, 9.0 and could allow a local attacker to obtain sensitive information, caused by stale data being cached and then served. IBM X-Force ID: 127152.

IBM WebSphere Application Server is vulnerable to cross-site scripting. This vulnerability allows users to embed arbitrary JavaScript code in the Web UI thus altering the intended functionality potentially leading to credentials disclosure within a trusted session.

An issue was discovered in Pivotal Spring Security before 3.2.10, 4.1.x before 4.1.4, and 4.2.x before 4.2.1. Spring Security does not consider URL path parameters when processing security constraints. By adding a URL path parameter with an encoded "/" to a request, an attacker may be able to bypass a security constraint. The root cause of this issue is a lack of clarity regarding the handling of path parameters in the Servlet Specification. Some Servlet containers include path parameters in the value returned for getPathInfo() and some do not. Spring Security uses the value returned by getPathInfo() as part of the process of mapping requests to security constraints. The unexpected presence of path parameters can cause a constraint to be bypassed. Users of Apache Tomcat (all current versions) are not affected by this vulnerability since Tomcat follows the guidance previously provided by the Servlet Expert group and strips path parameters from the value returned by getContextPath(), getServletPath(), and getPathInfo(). Users of other Servlet containers based on Apache Tomcat may or may not be affected depending on whether or not the handling of path parameters has been modified. Users of IBM WebSphere Application Server 8.5.x are known to be affected. Users of other containers that implement the Servlet specification may be affected.

The Administrative Console in IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) 7.x before 7.0.0.43, 8.0.x before 8.0.0.13, and 8.5.x before 8.5.5.10 mishandles CSRFtoken cookies, which allows remote authenticated users to obtain sensitive information via unspecified vectors.

IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) 7.0 before 7.0.0.43, 8.0 before 8.0.0.13, 8.5 before 8.5.5.11, 9.0 before 9.0.0.2, and Liberty before 16.0.0.4 allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary Java code via a crafted serialized object.

IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) 7.x before 7.0.0.43, 8.0.x before 8.0.0.13, 8.5.x before 8.5.5.11, 9.0.x before 9.0.0.2, and Liberty before 16.0.0.3 mishandles responses, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information via unspecified vectors.

IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) 7.x before 7.0.0.43, 8.0.0.x before 8.0.0.13, 8.5.0.x before 8.5.5.10, 8.5.0.x and 16.0.0.x Liberty before Liberty Fix Pack 16.0.0.3, and 9.0.0.x before 9.0.0.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via crafted SIP messages.

CRLF injection vulnerability in IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) 7.0 before 7.0.0.43, 8.0 before 8.0.0.13, 8.5 Full before 8.5.5.10, and 8.5 Liberty before Liberty Fix Pack 16.0.0.2 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary HTTP headers and conduct HTTP response splitting attacks via a crafted URL.

IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) 7.0 before 7.0.0.41, 8.0 before 8.0.0.13, and 8.5 before 8.5.5.10, when FIPS 140-2 is enabled, misconfigures TLS, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to obtain sensitive information via unspecified vectors.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in IBM WebSphere Application Server 7.0 before 7.0.0.41, 8.0 before 8.0.0.12, and 8.5 before 8.5.5.9 allows remote authenticated users to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via crafted data from an OAuth provider.

Oracle Mojarra 1.2_14 and 2.0.2, as used in IBM WebSphere Application Server, Caucho Resin, and other applications, does not properly handle an unencrypted view state, which allows remote attackers to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks or execute arbitrary Expression Language (EL) statements via vectors that involve modifying the serialized view object.
