A flaw was found in maven. Repositories that are defined in a dependency’s Project Object Model (pom), which may be unknown to users, are used by default resulting in potential risk if a malicious actor takes over that repository or is able to insert themselves into a position to pretend to be that repository. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality and integrity.

IBM Cloud Pak for Automation 18.0.0, 18.0.1, 18.0.2, 19.0.1, 19.0.2, 19.0.3, 20.0.1, 20.0.2, 20.0.3, 21.0.1, 21.0.2, 21.0.3, 22.0.1, and 22.0.2 is potentially vulnerable to CSV Injection. A remote attacker could execute arbitrary commands on the system, caused by improper validation of csv file contents. IBM X-Force ID: 259354.

Apache Commons Jelly could allow a remote attacker to bypass security restrictions, caused by improper handling of XML External Entity (XXE) entries when parsing to an XML file. By persuading a victim to open a jelly file containing a specially crafted custom doctype entity in a SYSTEM entity that contains a URL, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to conduct XML External Entity (XXE) attacks.
