Description:
Two security issues and a vulnerability have been reported in WebLogic Portal, which potentially can be exploited by malicious people to disclose sensitive information and bypass certain security restrictions.
1) Database passwords are stored in clear-text in the "config.xml" file and may expose the database password for the RDBMS Authentication provider to malicious users.
Successful exploitation requires that the site has configured the RDBMS Authentication provider.
The security issue affects the following versions:
* WebLogic Portal 8.1 through Service Pack 3 (all platforms)
2) The file source of an application's deployment descriptor is not properly protected and can be disclosed via the web interface.
The security issue affects the following versions:
* WebLogic Portal 8.1 through Service Pack 4 (all platforms)
3) An input validation error in WSRP (Web Services Remote Portlets) may be exploited to access certain web resources not intended to be accessed by requesting specially crafted URLs.
Successful exploitation requires that the site uses WSRP.
The vulnerability affects the following versions:
* WebLogic Portal 8.1 Service Pack 3, Service Pack 4, and Service Pack 5
