IBM WebSphere Application Server Liberty 23.0.0.9 < 23.0.0.11 Security Weakness (7058356)

critical Nessus Plugin ID 184166

Language:

Synopsis

The remote web application server is affected by a vulnerability.

Description

The IBM WebSphere Application Server Liberty running on the remote host is 23.0.0.9 prior to 23.0.0.11. It may, therefore, provide weaker than expected security due to improper resource expiration handling.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Update to IBM WebSphere Application Server Liberty version 23.0.0.11 or later. Alternatively, upgrade to the minimal fix pack levels required by the interim fix and then apply Interim Fix PH57579.
