Published: Translated: NVD NIST

Summary

BEA WebLogic Server and WebLogic Express versions 8.1 SP3 and earlier, and 7.0 SP5 and earlier, improperly constrain a slash (/) servlet root URL pattern. This could allow a remote attacker to bypass intended servlet protections.

Risk Assessment

The risk involves potential bypass of servlet access controls, leading to unauthorized access to sensitive application resources.

Recommendation

It is recommended to upgrade BEA WebLogic Server to a version later than 8.1 SP3 or 7.0 SP5 where the URL pattern constraint is fixed.
