RE: BEA Weblogic pentest

["Darren Webb" <spyder007 () charter net>]

Hello,

Christine is right. BEA Weblogic is integrated into the PeopleSoft
application. In this scenario, if you found something in BEA Weblogic that
that has issues and needs to upgraded, the patch/fix has to be tested and
approved by PeopleSoft first (in our case, it was a full PeopleSoft upgrade
that fixed the problems).

   I strongly suggest to take a look at the documentation at
   edocs.bea.com/wls/docs81/index.html.
   They have a good explanation on what to do to make BEA
   Weblogic secure. This gives some good hints what to check,
   i.e. check if the nodemanager is running, the servlet servlet
   is enabled or disabled, ... .

   AFAIK the BEA in PeopleSoft is embedded into the application.
   I'm not sure how much is changed.

   Cheers,
