IBM FileNet Content Manager 4.0, 4.0.1, and 4.5, as used in IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) and Oracle BEA WebLogic Application Server, when the CE Web Services listener has a certain WSEAF configuration, does not properly restrict use of a cached Subject, which allows remote attackers to obtain access with the credentials of a recently authenticated user via unspecified vectors.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This flaw could let a remote attacker use the identity of a recently logged-in FileNet user in a specific CE Web Services listener configuration. For business leaders, the concern is unauthorized access to content repositories where FileNet stores sensitive business records. Exposure is likely limited to legacy IBM FileNet Content Manager 4.x deployments using CE Web Services with the affected WSEAF configuration on WebSphere Application Server or Oracle BEA WebLogic. Organizations without these legacy versions or listener configuration are less likely exposed. Prioritize this if legacy FileNet systems still protect regulated, legal, financial, or customer records. The issue is old, but identity confusion in a content repository can create meaningful confidentiality and compliance risk. Mitigation focus: Check IBM advisory swg21389281 for vendor-supported fixes or configuration guidance.; Inventory FileNet Content Manager 4.0, 4.0.1, and 4.5 deployments.; Identify CE Web Services listeners using WSEAF configuration..
