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.x prior to 8.5.5.15, or 9.0.0.x prior to 9.0.0.10. It is, therefore, affected by a directory traversal vulnerability in the admin console.
An authenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, by sending a URI that contains directory traversal characters, to disclose the contents of files located outside of the server’s restricted path.
