**CVE ID: **[**_CVE-2014-3083_**]() **(APAR PI17768)** **
DESCRIPTION: **WebSphere Application Server could allow a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information, caused by the failure to restrict access to resources located within the web application. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to obtain configuration data and other sensitive information. **
CVSS:** _
CVSS Base Score: 5.0
CVSS Temporal Score: See _[_https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/93954_]() _for the current score
CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined
CVSS String: (AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:N)_ **
AFFECTED VERSIONS**: The following IBM WebSphere Application Server Versions are affected:
* Version 8.5
* Version 8.5 Liberty Profile if you have installed the Portlet Container feature from the WASdev Liberty Repository.
* Version 8
* Version 7
**
Remediation/Fixes: **Remediation is needed for WebSphere Application Server as well as there may be a need for your own portlets to be updated to avoid this issue. The recommended solution is to apply the Fix Pack or PTF for each named product as soon as practical **_
Fix:_**
Apply an [_Interim Fix_](), [_Fix Pack or PTF_]() containing this APAR PI17768, as noted below: **
For IBM WebSphere Application Server
For V8.5.0.0 through 8.5.5.2 (Full Profile):**
* Apply Fix Pack 3 (8.5.5.3), or later. []()
— Or —
* Apply Interim Fix [_PI17768 _]()
**For V8.5.0.0. through 8.5.5.2 (Liberty Profile):** **
If you have the installed the Portlet Container Feature from WASdev Liberty Repository:**
* Remove the Portlet Container feature from your Liberty Profile server by deleting the following files and directories:
`usrextensiondevapispeccom.ibm.websphere.appserver.api.portlet_2.0.0.jar` `
usrextensiondevapispeccom.ibm.ws.javaee.ccpp_1.0.0.jar` `
usrextensiondevapispeccom.ibm.ws.javaee.portlet_2.0.0.jar` `
usrextensionlibcom.ibm.ws.portletcontainer_2.0.0.jar` `
usrextensionlibfeaturescom.ibm.websphere.appserver.portlet-2.0.mf` `
usrextensionlibfeaturesl10ncom.ibm.websphere.appserver.portlet-2.0.properties` `
usrextensionlafilescom.ibm.websphere.appserver.portlet-2.0 directory and all subdirectories`
Then install the most current version of the Portlet Container from the WASdev Liberty Repository.
**
For V8.0.0.0 through 8.0.0.9:**
* Apply Fix Pack 10 (8.0.0.10), or later.
— Or —
* Apply Interim Fix [_PI17768_]()
**
For V7.0.0.0 through 7.0.0.33:**
* Apply Fix Pack 35 (7.0.0.35), or later.
— Or —
* Apply Interim Fix [_PI17768_]()
**
Remediation for portlets: **
All JSR 286 compliant portlets that derive from class javax.portlet.GenericPortlet must override method serveResource.
An overriding serveResource implementation must not call super.serveResource.
If the portlet does not use resource serving, a empty implementation of serveResource should be used.
`
Example: This empty implementation is correct for a portlet that does not use resource serving:` `
@Override` `**
public**` ` ` `**void**` ` serveResource(ResourceRequest request, ResourceResponse response)` `**throws**` ` PortletException, IOException {` `
// Empty implementation on purpose` `
if (logger.isLoggable(Level.WARNING) {` `
// Unexpected call to serveResource, therefore log a warning.` `
logger.log(Level.WARNING, “Unexpected call to serveResource.”);` `
}` `
}` `
Example of a WRONG fix:` `
@Override` `**
public**` ` ` `**void**` ` serveResource(ResourceRequest request, ResourceResponse response)` `**throws**` ` PortletException, IOException {` `
// “**FIXME **“This is wrong: Calling super.serveResource does not fix the security issue !` `**
super**` `.serveResource(request, response);` `
}` **_

## Disclaimer
According to the Forum of Incident Response and Security Teams (FIRST), the Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) is an “industry open standard designed to convey vulnerability severity and help to determine urgency and priority of response.” IBM PROVIDES THE CVSS SCORES “”AS IS”” WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. CUSTOMERS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR ASSESSING THE IMPACT OF ANY ACTUAL OR POTENTIAL SECURITY VULNERABILITY. In addition to other efforts to address potential vulnerabilities, IBM periodically updates the record of components contained in our product offerings. As part of that effort, if IBM identifies previously unidentified packages in a product/service inventory, we address relevant vulnerabilities regardless of CVE date. Inclusion of an older CVEID does not demonstrate that the referenced product has been used by IBM since that date, nor that IBM was aware of a vulnerability as of that date. We are making clients aware of relevant vulnerabilities as we become aware of them. “Affected Products and Versions” referenced in IBM Security Bulletins are intended to be only products and versions that are supported by IBM and have not passed their end-of-support or warranty date. Thus, failure to reference unsupported or extended-support products and versions in this Security Bulletin does not constitute a determination by IBM that they are unaffected by the vulnerability. Reference to one or more unsupported versions in this Security Bulletin shall not create an obligation for IBM to provide fixes for any unsupported or extended-support products or versions.
