Abstract
This security bulletin for WebSphere Application Server is a way for you to obtain security risk assessment information for APARs that are considered Security Integrity. If there is any potential risk of exposure, the APAR is marked as Security Integrity. Some APARs are marked as Security Integrity that are low risk and do not impact every client. The intention is to provide enough risk assessment information to help you assess the impact to your organization
Each Security Integrity APAR is listed by leveraging the IBM Xforce vulnerability reporting system. Each APAR is carefully researched and properly analyzed by WebSphere development and an IBM X-Force research team of security experts to properly rate and assess the risk of the vulnerability. The IBM X-Force team uses the industry standard Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) process for rating.
You can use this information in order to assess if a particular Security Integrity APAR applies to your environment.
