CVE-2010-2639
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedIBM WebSphere Commerce Enterprise 7.0 before 7.0.0.2 allows remote attackers to read messages intended for other recipients via vectors involving access by the outbound messaging system to the RunTimeProfileCacheCmdImpl class, related to the caching of mutable objects and "concurrency issues."
Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · moderate confidenceIBM WebSphere Commerce Enterprise 7.0 before 7.0.0.2 contains a vulnerability in the outbound messaging system where the RunTimeProfileCacheCmdImpl class caches mutable objects improperly, creating concurrency issues that allow remote attackers to read messages intended for other users.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Determine the installed IBM WebSphere Commerce versionCheck the version of the IBM WebSphere Commerce Enterprise installation. This is typically found in the installation directory or through the WebSphere Commerce administration console. Look for version files or check the Commerce component version information.Affected if The installed version is 7.0 or 7.0.0.1 (versions before 7.0.0.2)
-
Verify the outbound messaging system is enabledCheck the WebSphere Commerce configuration for outbound messaging settings. This is typically configured in the WebSphere Commerce Administrator tools or configuration files that control messaging subsystem behavior.Affected if The outbound messaging feature is configured and active in the environment
-
Confirm message caching is in useInspect whether the RunTimeProfileCacheCmdImpl class is being utilized by the messaging system. This involves checking the messaging module configuration or class loading behavior within the WebSphere Commerce runtime.Affected if The RunTimeProfileCacheCmdImpl class is loaded and handling message caching operations
You are affected if IBM WebSphere Commerce Enterprise version 7.0 or 7.0.0.1 is installed AND the outbound messaging system is enabled and processing user messages through the RunTimeProfileCacheCmdImpl caching mechanism.
