When a logical J2EE server or a logical user server is started from Cosminexus Manager in Cosminexus Application Server,
sometimes the group permissions of another user are granted to the activated server process.
As a result, the process might be able to access files and directories illegally.
When either of the following logical servers are started from Cosminexus Manager in Cosminexus Application Server, sometimes the group permissions of another user are granted to the activated server process:
- Logical J2EE server
-
The above problem occurs if the Component Container administrator has been registered and the logical J2EE server process is started from the management server. For logical J2EE servers, the affected Cosminexus versions are 06-50 and later.
- Logical user server
- The above problem occurs if user-id tags and group-id tags have been set in the user server definition file,
and the logical user server process is started from the management server.
For logical user servers, the affected Cosminexus versions are 07-00 and later.
Affected products and versions are listed below. Please upgrade your version to the appropriate version.
