The IBM WebSphere Application Server running on the remote host is version 7.0.0.0 through 7.0.0.45, 8.0.0.0 through 8.0.0.15, 8.5.0.0 through to 8.5.5.17, or 9.0.0.0 through 9.0.5.4. It is, therefore, affected by an remote code execution vulnerability. An authenticated, local attacker can exploit this by scheduling a task with a specially-crafted UNC path and execute arbitrary code with higher privileges
