Content
VULNERABILITY DETAILS:
CVE ID: CVE-2012-4853 (PM62920)
DESCRIPTION: WebSphere Application Server is vulnerable to cross-site request
forgery, caused by improper validation of user-supplied input. By persuading
an authenticated user to visit a malicious Web site, a remote attacker could
exploit this vulnerability to obtain sensitive information.
CVSS:
CVSS Base Score: 4.3
CVSS Temporal Score: See http://xforce.iss.net/xforce/xfdb/79598 for the
current score
CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined
CVSS String: (AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:N)

distributed operating systems, IBM i operating systems, and z/OS operating
system Versions are affected:
* Version 8.5
* Version 8
* Version 7
* Version 6.1
REMEDIATION: The recommended solution is to apply the Fix Pack or PTF for
each named product as soon as practical
Fix:
Apply a Fix Pack or PTF containing this APAR PM62920, as noted below:
For IBM WebSphere Application Server
For V8.5 :
o Install Fix Pack 1 (8.5.0.1), or later.
