BEA WebLogic Server and Express using the T3S protocol allows network monitoring to obtain information
| weblogic-t3s-obtain-information (13747) |  Medium Risk |
Description:
BEA WebLogic Server and Express, using the T3S protocol, could allow a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information. A remote attacker could access WebLogic Server using SSL over the T3 protocol and requesting a non-secure server port in the URL, causing a connection to be established that is not encrypted. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to monitor the network connection and obtain sensitive information.
