Vulnerability discussion

NOATS prevents the TSS administrator ACID from signing on through automatic terminal signon. If an ACID has ATS enabled, a terminal could be automatically assigned that ACID without a user being present. This applies to CICS, IMS, and IDMS.

Fix text

Review all security administrator ACIDs. Ensure the NOATS attribute has been assigned. Evaluate the impact of correcting the deficiency. Develop a plan of action and implement the changes. NOTE: The NOATS attribute may be added to an ACID or an ACID's PROFILE. The following command may be issued to determine if the NOATS attribute is defined to an ACID or an ACID's PROFILE: tss list() data(basic,profile)

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.
