IBM WebSphere Application Server versiones 7.0, 8.0, 8.5 y 9.0 traditional, podría permitir a un atacante remoto obtener información confidencial con una secuencia de objetos serializados especialmente diseñada. ID de IBM X-Force: 181230

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to disclose sensitive information on affected installations of IBM WebSphere. Authentication is not required to exploit this vulnerability.
The specific flaw exists within the handling of the IIOP protocol. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of user-supplied data, which can result in deserialization of untrusted data. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to disclose information in the context of root.
