CVE-2012-2162 (CCN-74900)

Assigned:2012-04-18
Published:2012-04-18
Updated:2017-08-29
Summary:The Web Server Plug-in in IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) 8.0 and earlier uses unencrypted HTTP communication after expiration of the plugin-key.kdb password, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information by sniffing the network, or spoof arbitrary servers via a man-in-the-middle attack.
