IBM WebSphere Application Server 7.0 < 7.0.0.45 / 8.0 < 8.0.0.14 / 8.5 < 8.5.5.13 / 9.0 < 9.0.0.5 Information Disclosure (PI82630)

low Nessus Plugin ID 102200

Language:

Synopsis

The remote web application server is affected by an information disclosure vulnerability.

Description

The version of IBM WebSphere Application Server running on the remote host is 7.0 prior to 7.0.0.45, 8.0 prior to 8.0.0.14, 8.5 prior to 8.5.5.13, or 9.0 prior to 9.0.0.5. It is, therefore, affected by an unspecified information disclosure flaw due to sensitive information being cached insecurely. This may allow a local attacker to access potentially sensitive information.

Note: Version 9.0 is only affected if you have changed the default value for the custom property cache.query.string to false.

Solution

Apply IBM WebSphere Application Server version 7.0 Fix Pack 45 (7.0.0.45) (targeted availability 2Q 2018) / 8.0 Fix Pack 14 (8.0.0.14) (targeted availability 16 October 2017) / 8.5 Fix Pack 13 (8.5.5.13) (targeted availability 5 February 2018) / 9.0 Fix Pack 5 (9.0.0.5) (targeted availability 29 September 2017) or later.
Alternatively, apply the appropriate Interim Fix PI82630 or workarounds or mitigations as recommended in the vendor advisory.
