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.
Vulnerability is not applicable if Transport protocol is not Object Request Broker (ORB) rather IBM eXtremeIO (XIO) .Please do not use ORB as transport protocol and use XIO as transport protocol. Please follow the below document for setting XIO as transport protocol
