Detailed Description |
The WebSphere Application Server is vulnerable to a JSP source code disclosure vulnerability via the request with a '%20' appended. IBM WebSphere Application Server versions prior to 6.1.0.2 could allow a remote attacker to view the source code of various JavaServer Pages (JSP) scripts by requesting the .jsp file with a '%20' appended to the request. A remote attacker could send a specially-crafted URL to WebSphere to cause the requested JSP file's source code to be disclosed, which would allow the attacker to obtain sensitive information.
