If assistance is needed in determining the appropriate Fix Pack or Interim
Fix level, contact IBM Technical Support. It is recommended that you always
request the latest available Fix Pack or Interim Fix.
Due to the threat posed by a successful attack, IBM strongly recommends
that customers apply fixes as soon as possible.
Workarounds and Mitigations
Until you apply the fixes, it may be possible to reduce the risk
of successful attack by restricting network protocols required by an
attack. For attacks that require certain privileges or access to certain
packages, removing the privileges or the ability to access the packages
from unprivileged users may help reduce the risk of successful attack. Both
approaches may break application functionality, so IBM strongly recommends
that customers test changes on non-production systems. Neither approach
should be considered a long-term solution as neither corrects the underlying
problem.
