BEA WebLogic Express and WebLogic Server 7.0 and 7.0.0.1, stores passwords in plaintext when a keystore is used to store a private key or trust certificate authorities, which allows local users to gain access.
Race condition in BEA WebLogic Server and Express 5.1 through 7.0.0.1, when using in-memory session replication or replicated stateful session beans, causes the same buffer to be provided to two users, which could allow one user to see session data that was intended for another user.
BEA WebLogic Server and WebLogic Express 6.1, 7.0, and 8.1, with RMI and anonymous admin lookup enabled, allows remote attackers to obtain configuration information by accessing MBeanHome via the Java Naming and Directory Interface (JNDI).
The default CredentialMapper for BEA WebLogic Server and Express 7.0 and 7.0.0.1 stores passwords in cleartext on disk, which allows local users to extract passwords.
BEA WebLogic Server and Express 7.0 and 7.0.0.1 stores certain secrets concerning password encryption insecurely in config.xml, filerealm.properties, and weblogic-rar.xml, which allows local users to learn those secrets and decrypt passwords.
BEA WebLogic Server proxy plugin for BEA Weblogic Express and Server 6.1 through 8.1 SP 1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (proxy plugin crash) via a malformed URL.
BEA Weblogic Express and Server 8.0 through 8.1 SP 1, when using a foreign Java Message Service (JMS) provider, echoes the password for the foreign provider to the console and stores it in cleartext in config.xml, which could allow attackers to obtain the password.
Weblogic.admin for BEA WebLogic Server and Express 7.0 and 7.0.0.1 displays the JDBCConnectionPoolRuntimeMBean password to the screen in cleartext, which allows attackers to read a user's password by physically observing ("shoulder surfing") the screen.
The Node Manager for BEA WebLogic Express and Server 6.1 through 8.1 SP 1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (Node Manager crash) via malformed data to the Node Manager's port, as demonstrated by nmap.
BEA WebLogic Express and Server 7.0 through 8.1 SP 1, under certain circumstances when a request to use T3 over SSL (t3s) is made to the insecure T3 port, may use a non-SSL connection for the communication, which could allow attackers to sniff sessions.
BEA WebLogic Server and Express version 7.0 SP3 may follow certain code execution paths that result in an incorrect current user, such as in the frequent use of JNDI initial contexts, which could allow remote authenticated users to gain privileges.
BEA WebLogic Server and Express 7.0 and 7.0.0.1, when using "memory" session persistence for web applications, does not clear authentication information when a web application is redeployed, which could allow users of that application to gain access without having to re-authenticate.
BEA WebLogic Server 6.1, 7.0 and 7.0.0.1, when routing messages to a JMS target domain that is inaccessible, may leak the user's password when it throws a ResourceAllocationException.
Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in WebLogic Integration 7.0 and 2.0, Liquid Data 1.1, and WebLogic Server and Express 5.1 through 7.0, allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary web script and steal authentication credentials via (1) a forward instruction to the Servlet container or (2) other vulnerabilities in the WebLogic Server console application.
BEA WebLogic Server and Express, when using NodeManager to start servers, provides Operator users with privileges to overwrite usernames and passwords, which may allow Operators to gain Admin privileges.
The Administration Console for BEA Tuxedo 8.1 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (hang) via pathname arguments that contain MS-DOS device names such as CON and AUX.
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in InteractiveQuery.jsp for BEA WebLogic 8.1 and earlier allows remote attackers to inject malicious web script via the person parameter.
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the Administration Console for BEA Tuxedo 8.1 and earlier allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script via the INIFILE argument.
The Administration Console for BEA Tuxedo 8.1 and earlier allows remote attackers to determine the existence of files outside the web root via modified paths in the INIFILE argument.
BEA WebLogic Server and Express 6.0 through 7.0 does not properly restrict access to certain internal servlets that perform administrative functions, which allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files or execute arbitrary code.
BEA WebLogic Server and Express 6.1 through 7.0.0.1 buffers HTTP requests in a way that can cause BEA to send the same response for two different HTTP requests, which could allow remote attackers to obtain sensitive information that was intended for other users.
An undocumented extension for the Servlet mappings in the Servlet 2.3 specification, when upgrading to WebLogic Server and Express 7.0 Service Pack 1 from BEA WebLogic Server and Express 6.0 through 7.0.0.1, does not prepend a "/" character in certain URL patterns, which prevents the proper enforcement of role mappings and policies in applications that use the extension.
BEA WebLogic Server and Express 7.0 and 7.0.0.1, when running Servlets and Enterprise JavaBeans (EJB) on more than one server, will remove the security constraints and roles on all servers for any Servlets or EJB that are used by an application that is undeployed on one server, which could allow remote attackers to conduct unauthorized activities in violation of the intended restrictions.
The default configuration of BEA WebLogic Server and Express 8.1 SP2 and earlier, 7.0 SP4 and earlier, 6.1 through SP6, and 5.1 through SP13 responds to the HTTP TRACE request, which can allow remote attackers to steal information using cross-site tracing (XST) attacks in applications that are vulnerable to cross-site scripting.
BEA WebLogic Server and WebLogic Express 9.0, 8.1, and 7.0 lock out the admin user account after multiple incorrect password guesses, which allows remote attackers who know or guess the admin account name to cause a denial of service (blocked admin logins).
Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in BEA WebLogic Server and WebLogic Express 9.0, 8.1 SP4 and earlier, 7.0 SP6 and earlier, and 6.1 SP7 and earlier allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML and gain administrative privileges via unknown attack vectors.
BEA WebLogic Server and WebLogic Express 8.1 SP4 and earlier and 7.0 SP6 and earlier, when using the weblogic.Deployer command with the t3 protocol, does not use the secure t3s protocol even when an Administration port is enabled on the Administration server, which might allow remote attackers to sniff the connection.
BEA WebLogic Server and WebLogic Express 8.1 SP3 and earlier, and 7.0 SP5 and earlier, when fullyDelegatedAuthorization is enabled for a servlet, does not cause servlet deployment to fail when failures occur in authorization or role providers, which might prevent the servlet from being "fully protected."
BEA WebLogic Server and WebLogic Express 8.1 SP4 and earlier, 7.0 SP5 and earlier, and 6.1 SP7 and earlier allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (server thread hang) via unknown attack vectors.
HTTP request smuggling vulnerability in BEA WebLogic Server and WebLogic Express 8.1 SP4 and earlier, 7.0 SP6 and earlier, and 6.1 SP7 and earlier allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary HTTP headers via unspecified attack vectors.
