Description

Symptom

An authenticated user can use functions of AS Java to which access should be restricted. This may result in an escalation of privileges.

Solution

Update your AS Java to a Support Package (SP) or release where the issue is fixed. See the SP Patch Level section for details and available patches.

Reason and prerequisites

AS Java does not define authorization checks for an authenticated user’s authorization to access some of its functions. This may result in an undesired system behavior.
