The IBM WebSphere Application Server running on the remote host is version 7.0.0.x through 7.0.0.45, 8.0.0.x through 8.0.0.15, 8.5.0.x prior to 8.5.5.14 or 9.0.x prior to 9.0.0.9. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities related to Apache Struts, including the following:

  • Apache Commons BeanUtils, as distributed in lib/commons-beanutils-1.8.0.jar in Apache Struts 1.x through 1.3.10 and in other products requiring commons-beanutils through 1.9.2, does not suppress the class property, which allows remote attackers to manipulate the ClassLoader and execute arbitrary code via the class parameter, as demonstrated by the passing of this parameter to the getClass method of the ActionForm object in Struts 1. (CVE-2014-0114)

  • ActionServlet.java in Apache Struts 1 1.x through 1.3.10 mishandles multithreaded access to an ActionForm instance, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (unexpected memory access) via a multipart request, a related issue to CVE-2015-0899. (CVE-2016-1181)

  • ActionServlet.java in Apache Struts 1 1.x through 1.3.10 does not properly restrict the Validator configuration, which allows remote attackers to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks or cause a denial of service via crafted input, a related issue to CVE-2015-0899. (CVE-2016-1182)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
