Description
This security bulletin contains information about 3 vulnerabilities.
1) Inadequate Encryption Strength (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-32753)
CWE-ID: CWE-326 - Inadequate Encryption Strength
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:A/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker in the adjacent network to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to IBM Security Verify Directory uses weaker than expected cryptographic algorithms. A remote attacker can gain unauthorized access to sensitive information on the system.
2) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-32751)
CWE-ID: CWE-200 - Exposure of sensitive information to an unauthorized actor
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to excessive data output by the application. A remote attacker can gain unauthorized access to sensitive information on the system.
3) Path traversal (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-33165)
CWE-ID: CWE-22 - Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal')
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform directory traversal attacks.
The vulnerability exists due to input validation error when processing directory traversal sequences. A remote attacker can send a specially-crafted URL request containing "dot dot" sequences (/../) to view arbitrary files on the system.
