Medium Severity
<VulnDiscussion>WebSphere MQ channel security can be configured to provide authentication, message privacy, and message integrity between queue managers. WebSphere MQ channels use SSL encryption techniques, digital signatures and digital certificates to provide message privacy, message integrity and mutual authentication between clients and servers. Failure to properly secure a WebSphere MQ channel may lead to unauthorized access. This exposure could compromise the availability, integrity, and confidentiality of some system services, applications, and customer data.</VulnDiscussion><FalsePositives></FalsePositives><FalseNegatives></FalseNegatives><Documentable>false</Documentable><Mitigations></Mitigations><SeverityOverrideGuidance></SeverityOverrideGuidance><PotentialImpacts></PotentialImpacts><ThirdPartyTools></ThirdPartyTools><MitigationControl></MitigationControl><Responsibility></Responsibility><IAControls></IAControls>
