Description

BEA WebLogic Express and Server contains a flaw that may allow unprivilege Admin and Operator security roles start and stop server. The issue is due to the start and stop policies for Admin and Operator security roles aren't properly enforced. It is possible that the flaw may allow a local attacker to arbitrarily start and stop the webserver, resulting in a loss of availability.
