DESCRIPTION:
A security issue has been reported in IBM WebSphere MQ, which can be
exploited by malicious, local users to bypass certain security
restrictions.

The security issue is caused due to access not being restricted on
certain WebSphere MQ control commands and can be exploited to e.g.
stop the command server on the specified queue manager via the
ENDMQCSV control command.

Successful exploitation requires that the MQM group default rights is
set on the system.

The security issue is reported in versions 6.0.x.

SOLUTION:
Apply APAR IC78034 or update to version 6.0.2.11 when available.
