The Migration component in IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) 6.1 before 6.1.0.25 and 7.0 before 7.0.0.5, when tracing is enabled and a 6.1 to 7.0 migration has occurred, allows remote authenticated users to obtain sensitive information by reading a Migration Trace file.

The Servlet Engine/Web Container component in IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) 6.1 before 6.1.0.25 and 7.0 before 7.0.0.5, when SPNEGO Single Sign-on (SSO) and disableSecurityPreInvokeOnFilters are configured, allows remote attackers to bypass authentication via a request for a "secure URL," related to a certain invokefilterscompatibility property.

The Web Services functionality in IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) 6.1 before 6.1.0.25 and 7.0 before 7.0.0.5, in certain circumstances involving the ibm-webservicesclient-bind.xmi file and custom password encryption, uses weak password obfuscation, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (deployment failure) via unspecified vectors.

The Security component in IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) 6.1 before 6.1.0.25 and 7.0 before 7.0.0.5 does not properly handle use of Identity Assertion with CSIv2 Security, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended CSIv2 access restrictions via vectors involving Enterprise JavaBeans (EJB).

The design of the W3C XML Signature Syntax and Processing (XMLDsig) recommendation, as implemented in products including (1) the Oracle Security Developer Tools component in Oracle Application Server 10.1.2.3, 10.1.3.4, and 10.1.4.3IM; (2) the WebLogic Server component in BEA Product Suite 10.3, 10.0 MP1, 9.2 MP3, 9.1, 9.0, and 8.1 SP6; (3) Mono before 2.4.2.2; (4) XML Security Library before 1.2.12; (5) IBM WebSphere Application Server Versions 6.0 through 6.0.2.33, 6.1 through 6.1.0.23, and 7.0 through 7.0.0.1; (6) Sun JDK and JRE Update 14 and earlier; (7) Microsoft .NET Framework 3.0 through 3.0 SP2, 3.5, and 4.0; and other products uses a parameter that defines an HMAC truncation length (HMACOutputLength) but does not require a minimum for this length, which allows attackers to spoof HMAC-based signatures and bypass authentication by specifying a truncation length with a small number of bits.

IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) 7.0 before 7.0.0.3, and the Feature Pack for Web Services for WAS 6.1 before 6.1.0.25, when a WS-Security policy is established at the operation level, does not properly handle inbound requests that lack a SOAPAction or WS-Addressing Action, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions via a crafted request to a JAX-WS application.

IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) 6.1 through 6.1.0.24 and 7.0 through 7.0.0.4, IBM WebSphere Portal Server 5.1 through 6.0, and IBM Integrated Solutions Console (ISC) 6.0.1 do not properly set the IsSecurityEnabled security flag during migration of WebSphere Member Manager (WMM) to Virtual Member Manager (VMM) and a Federated Repository, which allows attackers to obtain sensitive information from repositories via unspecified vectors.

The Web Services Security component in IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) 6.0.2 before 6.0.2.35 and 7.0 before 7.0.0.3 has an unspecified "security problem" in the XML digital-signature specification, which has unknown impact and attack vectors.

IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) 7.0 before 7.0.0.3 uses weak permissions (777) for files associated with unspecified "interim fixes," which allows attackers to modify files that would not have been accessible if the intended 755 permissions were used.

The JAX-RPC WS-Security runtime in the Web Services Security component in IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) 6.1 before 6.1.0.23 and 7.0 before 7.0.0.3, when APAR PK41002 is installed, does not properly validate UsernameToken objects, which has unknown impact and attack vectors.

The administrative console in IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) 6.1 before 6.1.0.23 and 7.0 before 7.0.0.3 allows attackers to hijack user sessions in "specific scenarios" related to a forced logout.

The Servlet Engine/Web Container and JSP components in IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) 5.1.0, 5.1.1.19, 6.0.2 before 6.0.2.35, 6.1 before 6.1.0.23, and 7.0 before 7.0.0.3 allow remote attackers to read arbitrary files contained in war files in (1) web-inf, (2) meta-inf, and unspecified other directories via unknown vectors, related to (a) web-based applications and (b) the administrative console.
