Vulnerability Assessment Details

WebLogic management servlet

Vulnerability Assessment Summary
Checks the version of WebLogic

Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment

The remote web server is WebLogic

An internal management servlet which does not properly
check user credential can be accessed from outside, permiting
a cracker to change user passwords, and even upload or download
any file on the remote server.

In addition to this, there is a flaw in WebLogic 7.0 which may
permit users to delete empty subcontexts.

*** Note that Nessus only checked the version in the server banner
*** So this might be a false positive.
