Abstract

Fixpack 21 or Fixpack 23 which includes APAR PM44303, there is the potential
for an authenticated user to gain access to unauthorized resources.
Content
VULNERABILITY DETAILS:
DESCRIPTION: The Tivoli Federated Identity Manager uses Websphere Application
Server to provide Administrative services as a Websphere Enterprise
Application.
If you have installed an Interim Fix for Websphere Application Server APAR
PM44303, Websphere Application Server Fixpack 21 or Fixpack 23 which includes
APAR PM44303 , you have the potential for an authenticated user on the network
to bypass security restrictions, caused by an error when validating user
credentials. This access requires a medium level of complexity. This could
allow a user to gain unauthorized administrative access to an application and
potentially gain access to confidential and critical customer data.
This could allow the user to modify the configuration of the TFIM server
causing the server to work incorrectly. The user could also stop or uninstall
the TFIM Admin console causing a denial of service for the TFIM clients.
Lastly the user could modify the TFIM Administrator password allowing access
to the TFIM Admin console and TFIM information.
