CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H)
The following Versions of WebSphere Application Server and IBM WebSphere Application Server Hypervisor Edition may be affected:
For IBM WebSphere Application Server****Liberty
For Liberty V8.5.5.0 through 8.5.5.9 and 16.0.0.2 through 17.0.0.3 using the optional EJB Embeddable Container and JPA Client Feature:
If you use Liberty and you have the following files on your system:
· com.ibm.ws.ejb.embeddableContainer_nls_8.5.0.jar
· com.ibm.ws.jpa.thinclient_8.5.0.jar
then you are using the vulnerable feature and you should upgrade these jars to the 17.0.0.4 version.
To upgrade the jars that were installed with archive install:
To upgrade the jars that were installed with the IBM installation manager:
--OR
To upgrade the jars from WASdev:
Important notes: The version of WebSphere Liberty that you use and the version of the developer extra jar files do not need to match Fixpack levels. The Application Server does not contain the vulnerability but it is present in the jars that are part of the developer extras.
For V8.5.0.0 through 8.5.5.7 WebSphere Liberty:
The IBM WebSphere Application Server Liberty only enables the Apache Commons Collections if you are using ONE of the following three features:
You may be vulneraable if you are using any one of these features. To determine if you are vulnerable you can look in the console.log for this message:
``
[AUDIT ] CWWKF0012I: The server installed the following features: [xxxxx]
If in place of the xxxxx it does not contain any one of those three features listed then you are not vulnerable.
· If you are vulnerable then upgrade to minimal fix pack levels as required by interim fix and then apply Interim Fix PI52103
-- OR
· Apply Fix Pack 8 (8.5.5.8), or later.
For IBM WebSphere Application Server and IBM WebSphere Application Server Hypervisor Edition:**
** For V8.5.0.0 through 8.5.5.7:
For V8.0.0.0 through 8.0.0.11:
Apply Interim Fix PI52103
-- OR
Apply Fix Pack 12 (8.0.0.12), or later.
**
For V7.0.0.0 through 7.0.0.39:**
Apply Interim Fix PI52103
-- OR
Apply Fix Pack 41 (7.0.0.41), or later.
IBM recommends that you review your entire environment to identify vulnerable releases of the open-source Apache Commons Collections and take appropriate mitigation and remediation actions.
