Description
The Web Services functionality in IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) 6.1 before 6.1.0.25 and 7.0 before 7.0.0.5, in certain circumstances involving the ibm-webservicesclient-bind.xmi file and custom password encryption, uses weak password obfuscation, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (deployment failure) via unspecified vectors.
