Advisory Content (Page 1 of 3)[ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ]

Description:
A security issue has been discovered in WebLogic Server and WebLogic Express, which can be exploited by malicious, local users to gain knowledge of sensitive information.

The problem arises if a JDBC connection pool isn't targeted at a server and has a username and password specified. This causes WebLogic to store the credentials in clear text in the "config.xml" file.
