Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions WebSphere Application Server (WAS) for IBM Tivoli Identity Manager (ITIM) version 4.6

Description The issue allows local users to obtain the Java Key Store (JKS) password by listing the process or using other methods, as the password is placed in a -Djavax.net.ssl.trustStorePassword command line argument.
