Adapter installers have been updated to enable SSL by default. The customer can choose during installation to disable SSL. Note that keeping the SSL enablement option requires certificates to be imported. Vulnerability Details CVEID: CVE-2017-1362 DESCRIPTION: IBM Security Identity Adapters store user credentials in the plain, which can be read by a local user. If the adapter SSL option is not explicitly enabled during installation, the adapters transmit data, including user credentials, to IGI or the ISIM Server in clear text.
