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 Exposure Through an Error Message (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-32756)

CWE-ID: CWE-209 - Information Exposure Through an Error Message

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:H/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear


The vulnerability allows a remote privileged user to gain access to potentially sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to excessive data output by the application. A remote privileged user can gain unauthorized access to sensitive information on the system when a detailed technical error message is returned in the browser.


3) Cross-site scripting (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-32754)

CWE-ID: CWE-79 - Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting')

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:H/UI:P/VC:N/VI:N/VA:N/SC:L/SI:L/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear


The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote privileged user to perform cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data. The vulnerability allows privileged user to embed arbitrary JavaScript code in the Web UI thus altering the intended functionality potentially leading to credentials disclosure within a trusted session.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to steal potentially sensitive information, change appearance of the web page, perform phishing and drive-by-download attacks.
