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 is vulnerable to HTTP response splitting attacks. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability using specially-crafted URL to cause the server to return a split response, once the URL is clicked. This would allow the attacker to perform further attacks, such as Web cache poisoning, cross-site scripting, and possibly obtain sensitive information. IBM X-Force ID: 129578.

IBM Business Process Manager (aka BPM) 7.5.x, 8.0.x, and 8.5.x and WebSphere Lombardi Edition (aka WLE) 7.2.x allow remote authenticated users to bypass intended access restrictions on internal service types via vectors involving the executeServiceByName URL.

IBM WebSphere Application Server 8.0, 8.5, and 9.0 could provide weaker than expected security after using the Admin Console to update the web services security bindings settings. IBM X-Force ID: 129576.

IBM WebSphere Application Server version 9.0.0.4 could provide weaker than expected security after using the PasswordUtil command to enable AES password encryption. IBM X-Force ID: 129579.

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 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 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 using malformed SOAP requests could allow a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information.

IBM WebSphere Application Server 8.0 and 8.5.5 could provide weaker than expected security. A remote attacker could exploit this weakness to obtain sensitive information and gain unauthorized access to the admin console. IBM X-Force ID: 121549.
