WSPolicy in the Web Services component in IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) 7.0.x before 7.0.0.1 does not properly recognize the IDAssertion.isUsed binding property, which allows local users to discover a password by reading a SOAP message.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This issue affects IBM WebSphere Application Server 7.0.x before 7.0.0.1. A flaw in WSPolicy handling could let a local user read a SOAP message and discover a password. The business concern is credential exposure on older WAS systems, especially where local account access is broadly granted. Exposure is most likely limited to legacy IBM WebSphere Application Server 7.0.x deployments before 7.0.0.1 using the affected Web Services/WSPolicy functionality. Systems without local untrusted users or accessible SOAP messages are likely less exposed, but the source bundle does not define all configuration prerequisites. Prioritize remediation for any remaining WAS 7.0.x systems because this can expose passwords. Urgency is lower than a remote code execution issue, but credential disclosure can still enable broader compromise if local access exists. Mitigation focus: Upgrade affected WAS 7.0.x systems to 7.0.0.1 or later.; Review IBM APAR PK73573 and related IBM support guidance.; Restrict local access to SOAP messages, logs, and temporary files..
