              - New updates for BEA WebLogic -
  Oxygen3 24h-365d, by Panda Software (http://www.pandasoftware.com)

Madrid, April 26 2004 - BEA has released(*) four new updates for WebLogic
Server and WebLogic Express, to correct vulnerabilities that could be
exploited maliciously.

The first of the updates actually replaces a previous one released by BEA to
resolve problems in the assigning of privileges on creating new groups. The
second concerns the specification of URL patterns ending in * instead of /*.
Although this syntax is prohibited by Servlet 2.3, a coding error means that
they are treated as wildcards. Web applications configured in this way will
not be protected if they migrate from version 6.x to version 7.x or later of
WebLogic Server.

The third vulnerability is caused when an application calls the remove()
method of an EJB with a remote view. Finally the fourth vulnerability occurs
when using the config.sh or config.cmd configuration tools, which produce a
log file that contains the administrative username and password in
clear-text.

versions affected and the corresponding patches released by BEA is available
