Summary

Due to insufficient safeguards against cross-site request forgery in IBM 
InfoSphere Information Server Metadata Workbench, an attacker can trick a 
legitimate user into opening a URL that results in an action being taken as 
that user, potentially without the knowledge of that user. Any actions taken 
require that the legitimate user be already authenticated or to authenticate 
separately as part of the attack.
