Security readout for executives and security teams
CVE-2015-4963 is an IBM Security Access Manager for Web flaw where WebSEAL HTTPTransformation handling can let a remote attacker read or write arbitrary files. Because this product can sit in front of sensitive web applications, successful abuse could undermine confidentiality and system integrity. Exposure is likely limited to organizations running affected IBM Security Access Manager for Web versions with WebSEAL components reachable by untrusted users or networks. Prioritize remediation for internet-facing or partner-facing WebSEAL deployments. Even without known exploitation in the provided sources, remote arbitrary file read/write in an access management product is a serious business risk. Mitigation focus: Upgrade affected 7.x deployments to 7.0.0.16 or later.; Upgrade affected 8.x deployments to 8.0.1.3 or later.; Review IBM advisory guidance for any additional required fixes..
