Vulnerability Description

IBM WebSphere Extreme Scale 8.6.1.0 through 8.6.1.6 Approximately 50 generated CORBA stub classes in WebSphere eXtreme Scale's ogclient.jar call ORB.string_to_object() on an attacker-controlled IOR string during Java deserialization, turning any unfiltered ObjectInputStream sink in WAS into outbound IIOP SSRF to an attacker-chosen host; when chained with the IBM ORB's getUserException class-instantiation flaw (WAS-26), this SSRF escalates to remote code execution on the calling JVM.
