The Web Services Security component in IBM WebSphere Application Server 7.0 before Fix Pack 1 (7.0.0.1), 6.1 before Fix Pack 23 (6.1.0.23),and 6.0.2 before Fix Pack 33 (6.0.2.33) does not properly enforce (1) nonce and (2) timestamp expiration values in WS-Security bindings as stored in the com.ibm.wsspi.wssecurity.core custom property, which allows remote authenticated users to conduct session hijacking attacks.

IBM WebSphere Application Server 6.1 before Fix Pack 23 appears to be running on the remote host.  Such versions are reportedly affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

  - Provided an attacker has valid credentials, it may be possible to hijack an authenticated session. (PK66676)

  - It may be possible for a remote attacker to redirect users to arbitrary sites using ibm_security_logout servlet. (PK71126) 

  - Under certain conditions it may be possible to access administrative console user sessions. (PK74966)

  - If APAR PK41002 has been applied, an unspecified vulnerability in JAX-RPC WS-Security component could incorrectly validate 'UsernameToken'. (PK75992)

  - Sample applications shipped with IBM WebSphere Application Server are affected by cross-site scripting vulnerabilities. (PK76720)

  - The adminitrative console is affected by a cross-site scripting vulnerability. (PK77505)

  - It may be possible for an attacker to read arbitrary application-specific war files. (PK81387)

  - A session highjacking vulnerability exists in the 'forced logout' feature. (PK74966)

IBM WebSphere Application Server 6.0.2 before Fix Pack 33 appears to be running on the remote host.  Such versions are reportedly affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

  - Provided an attacker has valid credentials, it may be possible to hijack an authenticated session. (PK66676)

  - The PerfServlet code writes sensitive information in the 'systemout.log' and ffdc files, provided Performance Monitoring Infrastructure (PMI) is enabled. (PK63886)

  - It may be possible to login to the administrative console using a user account that is locked by the operating system. (PK67909)

  - An unknown vulnerability affects z/OS-based IBM WebSphere application servers. (PK71143)

  - An unspecified vulnerability in the administrative console could allow arbitrary file retrieval from the remote system. (PK72036)

  - If APAR PK41002 has been applied, an unspecified vulnerability in JAX-RPC WS-Security component could incorrectly validate 'UsernameToken'. (PK75992)

  - Certain files associated with interim fixes for Unix-based versions of IBM WebSphere Application Server are built with insecure file permissions. (PK78960)

IBM WebSphere Application Server 6.0.2 before Fix Pack 33 appears to be running on the remote host.  As such, it is reportedly affected by multiple vulnerabilities :
