WebSphere MQ resource classes are not properly activated.


Overview

Finding ID Version Rule ID IA Controls Severity
V-224360 ZWMQ0049 SV-224360r855236_rule Medium
Description
WebSphere MQ resources allow for the control of administrator functions, connections, commands, queues, processes, and namelists. Some resources provide the ability to disable or bypass security checking. Failure to properly protect WebSphere MQ resources may result in unauthorized access. This exposure could compromise the availability, integrity, and confidentiality of system services, applications, and customer data.
