Fixes are available

APAR status

Closed as program error.

Error description

The AuthCache entries are supposed to be removed if login is
done by using a password which is different from the data in
AuthCache.
However, the current code doesn't remove the AuthCache entries
correctly until the cache entries are evicted.

Problem summary

****************************************************************
* USERS AFFECTED:  All users of WebSphere Application Server   *
****************************************************************
* PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The AuthCache entries are not removed   *
*                      correctly when FormLogout Servlet is    *
*                      invoked.                                *
****************************************************************
* RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
****************************************************************
When FormLogout Servlet is invoked, the servlet invokes
removeEntry method on AuthCache to remove cache entries which
correspond the user ID which is being logged out. However due
to code defect, removeEntry method doesn't remove proper cache
entries.

Problem conclusion

With this fix, removeEntry method removes proper cache entries.

The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
fixpack 6.1.0.23 and 7.0.0.3.  Please refer to the Recommended
