The CICS listener in IBM TXSeries for Multiplatforms 6.2 GA waits for a forcepurge acknowledgement from the CICS Application Server (CICSAS) after an eci response timeout, which might allow remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (forcepurge handling delay), or have unspecified other impact, via vectors involving slow or nonexistent acknowledgement.
