Descriptions

It is possible to manipulate the JWT token without the knowledge of the JWT secret and authenticate without valid JWT token as any user. This is happening only in the situation when zOSMF doesn’t have the APAR PH12143 applied. This issue affects: 1.16 versions to 1.19. What happens is that the services using the ZAAS client or the API ML API to query will be deceived into believing the information in the JWT token is valid when it isn’t. It’s possible to use this to persuade the southbound service that different user is authenticated.

Esto sucede sólo en la situación en la que zOSMF no tiene aplicado el APAR PH12143. Este problema afecta: versiones 1.16 a 1.19. Lo que sucede es que los servicios que utilizan el cliente ZAAS o la API API ML para realizar consultas serán engañados haciéndoles creer que la información en el token JWT es válida cuando no lo es. Es posible utilizar esto para persuadir al servicio en dirección sur de que un usuario diferente está autenticado.
