Two points to consider:
1. The WAS 4.0 admin tool is based on Struts 0.5, which is quite antiquated.
That's not a hearty endorsement for Struts 1.0.
2. IBM is a *big* organization. The fact that the consulting group may be
pushing something besides Struts while the WAS group is using Struts is no

This is a question that's only partially related to Struts, but on the topic
of application security. The crux of it is trying to understand how to
faithfully redirect a request, including the HTTP method.

Yes, WAS 4.0 is a big step forward in usability. However, if you look
closely at the struts.jar file that is ships with, it's Struts 0.5.
That notwithstanding, the console looks like a pretty sophisticated app.
Probably not trivial for them to move it to Struts 1.0.

Pardon my skepticism, but from all appearances, the WAS 4.0 GA release is
out (nothing on the IBM WebSphere site says that the 4.0 you can now
download is beta), and this particular issue is *not* resolved. The
antiquated version of Jasper is still included. And from the response to my

We're trying to deploy our Struts application to WebSphere 3.5.4, and are
running into problems with what appears to be an outdated version of Jasper
shipping with WebSphere. I'm wondering if others have seen similar problems.
