CVE-2009-1078: Sun Java System Identity Manager (IdM) 7.0 through 8.0 does not enforce the expected privilege requirements...

Sun Java System Identity Manager (IdM) 7.0 through 8.0 does not enforce the expected privilege requirements for (1) deleting audit policies and (2) modifying workflows, which allows remote authenticated users to have an unspecified impact.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is an old access-control flaw in Sun Java System Identity Manager. An authenticated user may be able to delete audit policies or modify workflows without the expected privileges. That could weaken oversight or alter identity processes, but the public bundle does not specify the exact business impact. Exposure is likely limited to legacy Sun Java System Identity Manager deployments running versions 7.0 through 8.0. Organizations that retired or replaced this product are unlikely to be exposed, but old identity infrastructure can persist in internal networks. Treat this as a legacy identity-system governance risk. Prioritize if Sun IdM still controls production identity workflows or audit controls. The urgency is lower without exploitation evidence, but unsupported identity software deserves focused review. Mitigation focus: Inventory for Sun Java System Identity Manager 7.0 through 8.0 deployments.; Check archived Sun or Oracle guidance for Sun Alert 253267 and referenced fixes.; Restrict IdM access to trusted administrative networks and accounts..
