I just logged this hole with Lawson. Hopefully they will fix it soon. Anyway, here is the security hole. Ie: http://server:port/efs/ConfigurationAssistant No login check, nothing, and you can make changes.

Lawson recommends that after the installation this file is renamed and moved out of the EFS directory. Its meant as an installation and troubleshooting device but shouldnt be left in place. Additionally you could secure this specific file using Authentication security through your web server. Security hole, security by obscurity or just another "undocumented functionality" perhaps.
If any of my answers were helpful an endorsement on LinkedIn would be much appriciated! www.linkedin.com/pub/matthew-nye/1a/886/760/
