Abstract

Cross reference list for security vulnerabilities fixed in IBM WebSphere 
Application Server Fix Pack 8.5.0.2

Content

VULNERABILITY DETAILS:

CVE ID: CVE-2013-0458 (PM71139)

DESCRIPTION: WebSphere Application Server could allow a cross-site scripting 
attack, caused by improper validation of input in the Administrative console.
A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability using a specially-crafted
