IBM WebSphere Application Server 7.0 before 7.0.0.23, when a certain SSLv2 configuration with client authentication is used, allows remote attackers to bypass X.509 client-certificate authentication via unspecified vectors.

IBM WebSphere Application Server 7.0 before Fix Pack 23 appears to be running on the remote host.  As such, it is potentially affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - A security exposure when using WS-Security could result     in a user gaining elevated privileges in applications     using JAX-RPC. (PM45181 / CVE-2011-1377)

  - SSL client certificate authentication can be bypassed     when all of the following are true (PM52351) :

      - SSL is enabled with 'SSLEnable'
      - SSL client authentication is enabled with         'SSLClientAuth required_reset'. This is not enabled         by default. Also note, 'SSLClientAuth required' is         not affected.
      - SSLv2 has not been disabled with         'SSLProtocolDisable SSLv2'
      - 'SSLClientAuthRequire' is not enabled

  - Unspecified cross-site scripting issues exist related to     the administrative console. (PM52274, PM53132)

  - An error exists related to 'Application Snoop Servlet'     and missing access controls. This error can allow     sensitive information to be disclosed. (PM56183)

  - An issue related to the weak randomization of Java hash     data structures can allow a remote attacker to cause a     denial of service with maliciously crafted POST requests.
    (PM53930)

IBM WebSphere Application Server 6.1 before Fix Pack 43 appears to be running on the remote host.  As such, it is potentially affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - An unspecified error exists related to WS-Security     enabled JAX-RPC applications. (PM45181)

  - Insecure file permissions are applied to the files in     the '$WAS_HOME/systemapps/isclite.ear' and     '$WAS_HOME/bin/client_ffdc' directories. These     permissions can allow a local attacker read or write     files in those directories. Note this issue only     affects the application on the IBM i operating system.
    (PM49712)

  - An error exists in the class     'javax.naming.directory.AttributeInUseException' and can     allow old passwords to still provide access. This error     is triggered when passwords are updated by using IBM     Tivoli Directory Server. (PM52049)

  - Unspecified cross-site scripting issues exist related to     the administrative console. (PM52274, PM53132)

  - SSL client certificate authentication can be bypassed     when all of the following are true (PM52351) :

      - SSL is enabled with 'SSLEnable'
      - SSL client authentication is enabled with         'SSLClientAuth required_reset'. This is not enabled         by default. Also note, 'SSLClientAuth required' is         not affected
      - SSLv2 has not been disabled with         'SSLProtocolDisable SSLv2'
      - 'SSLClientAuthRequire' is not enabled

  - An issue related to the weak randomization of Java hash     data structures can allow a remote attacker to cause a     denial of service with maliciously crafted POST requests.
