CVE-2009-4189
First published: Thu Dec 03 2009(Updated: )
HP Operations Manager has a default password of OvW*busr1 for the ovwebusr account, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a session that uses the manager role to conduct unrestricted file upload attacks against the /manager servlet in the Tomcat servlet container. NOTE: this might overlap CVE-2009-3099 and CVE-2009-3843.
