Vulnerability discussion

WebSphere MQ resources allow for the control of administrator functions, connections, commands, queues, processes, and namelists. Some resources provide the ability to disable or bypass security checking. Failure to properly protect WebSphere MQ resources may result in unauthorized access. This exposure could compromise the availability, integrity, and confidentiality of system services, applications, and customer data.

Fix text

The IAO will ensure that all WebSphere MQ resources are active and properly defined. Ensure the System Authorization Facility Definition (SAFDEF) include an entry for WebSphere MQ as follows: INSERT SAFDEF.MQS ID(MQS) FUNCRET(8) RETCODE(4) MODE(IGNORE) RACROUTE(REQUEST=EXTRACT,CLASS=MQADMIN) REP Ensure the Internal CLASMAP Definitions include the following entries: INSERT CLASMAP.MQADMIN RESOURCE(MQADMIN) RSRCTYPE(MQA) ENTITYLN(62) INSERT CLASMAP.MQQUEUE RESOURCE(MQQUEUE) RSRCTYPE(MQQ) ENTITYLN(53) INSERT CLASMAP.MQNLIST RESOURCE(MQNLIST) RSRCTYPE(MQN) ENTITYLN(53) INSERT CLASMAP.MQCMDS RESOURCE(MQCMDS) RSRCTYPE(MQC) ENTITYLN(22) INSERT CLASMAP.MQCONN RESOURCE(MQCONN) RSRCTYPE(MQK) ENTITYLN(10) INSERT CLASMAP.MQPROC RESOURCE(MQPROC) RSRCTYPE(MQP) ENTITYLN(53) For V7.0.0 and above: INSERT CLASMAP.MXADMIN RESOURCE(MXADMIN) RSRCTYPE(MXA) ENTITYLN(62) INSERT CLASMAP.MXNLIST RESOURCE(MXNLIST) RSRCTYPE(MXN) ENTITYLN(53) INSERT CLASMAP.MXPROC RESOURCE(MXPROC) RSRCTYPE(MXP) ENTITYLN(53) INSERT CLASMAP.MXQUEUE RESOURCE(MXQUEUE) RSRCTYPE(MXQ) ENTITYLN(53) INSERT CLASMAP.MXTOPIC RESOURCE(MXTOPIC) RSRCTYPE(MXT) ENTITYLN(246)

Pro Tips

Lavender hyperlinks in small type off to the right (of CSS class id, if you view the page source) point to globally unique URIs for each document and item. Copy the link location and paste anywhere you need to talk unambiguously about these things.

You can obtain data about documents and items in other formats. Simply provide an HTTP header Accept: text/turtle or Accept: application/rdf+xml.
