IBM announces Domino Web Administrator is deprecated
Tags :Domino webadmin Domino Administrator
IBM has announced, via a security bulletin, that the Domino Web Administrator (webadmin.nsf) is now deprecated due to a cross-site scripting vulnerability. IBM suggest you only utilize the Domino Administrator client for all your needs in Domino versions 8.5.x and 9.x
You can read more in my article on SocialBizUG (yo) right here. It has the technote link and some more information on the Security Bulletin.
For those that do not know.. (yes via Wikipedia)
Deprecation is a status applied to a computer software feature, characteristic, or practice indicating it should be avoided, typically because of it being superseded. The term is also sometimes used for a feature, design, or practice that is permitted but no longer recommended
Note (Nov 14 2013): Installing a fresh Domino 9.0.1 server still creates the webadmin database
and go join my IdoNotes Network Facebook page or YouTube channels, I am trying to grow those too :-)
