PK85689: WCM GLOBAL CONTEXT IN SESSION NOT SCOPED TO VIRTUAL PORTALS

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• When users access the Web Content Viewer portlet in virtual
  portal A, then browse directly to virtual portal B, and access
  the Web Content Viewer portlet in virtual portal B, they may see
  content belonging to virtual portal A.
  
  No errors are seen in the SystemOut.log.
  
  This should not occur because portlets are supposed to use portl
  et sessions, which are not shared between virtual portals.
  
  This issue can occur with legacy versions of the Web Content
  Viewer portlet, that also use the http session. The http session
  is shared across virtual portals by design.
