SUPPORT / SAMPLES & SAS NOTES
Problem Note 65144: A security vulnerability occurs for SAS/CONNECT® server connections when the SASCLIENTPORT is recycled
 |  |  |  |  |
Severity: Low
Description: Occasionally, SAS/CONNECT users who are using IBM Platform LSF connect to the SAS/CONNECT server sessions for incorrect user IDs.
Potential Impact: The above condition can result in a security breach.
Note: The hot fix changes the SAS/CONNECT spawner to increment the SASCLIENTPORT use between each session, rather than recycling previously used ports.
