Error description

Problem summary


    

  • It is possible for end users to invoke executeServiceByName in
ways that result in the error page being shown with the stack
traces in the HTML source code.  These stack traces could
contain fragments of back-end code and structure, which is
considered a security risk.

    



Problem conclusion


    

  • Fixes for IBM BPM 7.5.1.0, 8.0.1.2, and 8.5.0.1 are available,
which removes
stack traces from the error page for executeServiceByName.
