The secure login page in the Administrative Console component in IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) 6.0.2 before 6.0.2.35 does not redirect to an https page upon receiving an http request, which makes it easier for remote attackers to read the contents of WAS sessions by sniffing the network.

Security readout for executives and security teams

IBM WebSphere Application Server 6.0.2 admin console login could accept HTTP without redirecting to HTTPS. On a sniffable network, an attacker could read session contents. The issue affects versions before 6.0.2.35 and is mainly a legacy-system risk. Exposure is most likely where legacy WebSphere 6.0.2 administrative consoles remain reachable over HTTP or reachable from untrusted network segments. Internet-exposed admin consoles would raise urgency, but the bundle does not confirm typical deployment exposure. Treat this as a legacy administrative-access risk. Prioritize remediation if WebSphere 6.0.2 is still used, especially where admin consoles are reachable beyond a protected management network. Mitigation focus: Upgrade IBM WAS 6.0.2 deployments to 6.0.2.35 or later where applicable.; Review IBM PK77010 and IBM support guidance for vendor-approved remediation.; Restrict Administrative Console access to trusted management networks..
