AI-suggested
Until a fix is available, consider restricting outbound requests from the affected server or applying network-level controls to limit potential SSRF exploitation.
Description
IBM WebSphere Application Server 9.0, and 8.5 is vulnerable to server-side request forgery (SSRF) that could allow a remote, unauthenticated attacker to cause the server to send outbound requests to arbitrary endpoints.
