CVE-2009-2092
IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) 7.0 before 7.0.0.5 does not properly read the portletServingEnabled parameter in ibm-portlet-ext.xmi, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions via unknown vectors.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (1.54%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
