Platform System Manager in IBM Cloud Pak System 2.3 is potentially vulnerable to CVS Injection. A remote attacker could execute arbitrary commands on the system, caused by improper validation of csv file contents. IBM X-Force ID: 165179.

Allows arbitrary filesystem writes outside the extraction directory during extraction with filter="data".

You are affected by this vulnerability if using the tarfile module to extract untrusted tar archives using TarFile.extractall() or TarFile.extract() using the filter= parameter with a value of "data" or "tar". See the tarfile extraction filters documentation

IBM Cloud Pak System 2.3 and 2.3.0.1 could allow a remote attacker to upload arbitrary files, which could allow the attacker to execute arbitrary code on the vulnerable server. IBM X-Force ID: 158280.

IBM Cloud Pak System 2.3 is vulnerable to cross-site request forgery which could allow an attacker to execute malicious and unauthorized actions transmitted from a user that the website trusts. IBM X-Force ID: 191391.

Untrusted LDLIBRARYPATH environment variable vulnerability in the GNU C Library version 2.27 to 2.38 allows attacker controlled loading of dynamically shared library in statically compiled setuid binaries that call dlopen (including internal dlopen calls after setlocale or calls to NSS functions such as getaddrinfo).

Allows the extraction filter to be ignored, allowing symlink targets to point outside the destination directory, and the modification of some file metadata.

You are affected by this vulnerability if using the tarfile module to extract untrusted tar archives using TarFile.extractall() or TarFile.extract() using the filter= parameter with a value of "data" or "tar". See the tarfile extraction filters documentation

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

posix-cpu-timers: fix race between handleposixcputimers() and posixcputimerdel()

If an exiting non-autoreaping task has already passed exitnotify() and calls handleposixcputimers() from IRQ, it can be reaped by its parent or debugger right after unlocktasksighand().

If a concurrent posixcputimerdel() runs at that moment, it won't be able to detect timer->it.cpu.firing != 0: cputimertaskrcu() and/or locktasksighand() will fail.

Add the tsk->exitstate check into runposixcputimers() to fix this.

This fix is not needed if CONFIGPOSIXCPUTIMERSTASKWORK=y, because exittaskwork() is called before exitnotify(). But the check still makes sense, taskworkadd(&tsk->posixcputimerswork.work) will fail anyway in this case.

In affected versions of dojo (NPM package), the deepCopy method is vulnerable to Prototype Pollution. Prototype Pollution refers to the ability to inject properties into existing JavaScript language construct prototypes, such as objects. An attacker manipulates these attributes to overwrite, or pollute, a JavaScript application object prototype of the base object by injecting other values. This has been patched in versions 1.12.8, 1.13.7, 1.14.6, 1.15.3 and 1.16.2

IBM Cloud Pak System 2.3.1.1, 2.3.2.0, and 2.3.3.7 uses an inadequate account lockout setting that could allow a remote attacker to brute force account credentials. IBM X-Force ID: 260733.

Async <= 2.6.4 and <= 3.2.5 are vulnerable to ReDoS (Regular Expression Denial of Service) while parsing function in autoinject function.

could allow a user with access to the network to obtain sensitive information from CLI arguments.

Tarfile extracts filtered members when errorlevel=0

IBM Cloud Pak System displays sensitive information in user messages that could aid in further attacks against the system.

IBM Cloud Pak System 2.3.5.0 could allow a local attacker to obtain sensitive information due to the insertion of credentials into log files.

A flaw was found in apache-commons-compress. When reading a specially crafted ZIP archive, Compress can allocate large amounts of memory that leads to an out-of-memory error for small inputs. This flaw allows the mounting of a denial of service attack against services that use Compress' zip package. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system availability.

IBM Cloud Pak System 2.3.0 through 2.3.3.3 Interim Fix 1 uses weaker than expected cryptographic algorithms that could allow an attacker to decrypt highly sensitive information. IBM X-Force ID: 197498.

IBM Cloud Pak System 2.3 Self Service Console could allow a privilege escalation by capturing the user request URL when logged in as a privileged user. IBM X-Force ID: 191287.

A flaw was found in Libblockdev. Libblockdev is vulnerable to Local Privilege Escalation (LPE) via allowactive to root via udisk.

Impact

The cookie name could be used to set other fields of the cookie, resulting in an unexpected cookie value. For example, serialize("userName=<script>alert('XSS3')</script>; Max-Age=2592000; a", value) would result in "userName=<script>alert('XSS3')</script>; Max-Age=2592000; a=test", setting userName cookie to <script> and ignoring value.

A similar escape can be used for path and domain, which could be abused to alter other fields of the cookie.

Patches

Upgrade to 0.7.0, which updates the validation for name, path, and domain.

Workarounds

Avoid passing untrusted or arbitrary values for these fields, ensure they are set by the application instead of user input.

In Eclipse JGit versions 7.2.0.202503040940-r and older, the ManifestParser class used by the repo command and the AmazonS3 class used to implement the experimental amazons3 git transport protocol allowing to store git pack files in an Amazon S3 bucket, are vulnerable to XML External Entity (XXE) attacks when parsing XML files. This vulnerability can lead to information disclosure, denial of service, and other security issues.

IBM Cloud Pak System 2.3 could allow a local privileged attacker to upload arbitrary files. By intercepting the request and modifying the file extention, the attacker could execute arbitrary code on the server. IBM X-Force ID: 191705.

The regcomp function in the GNU C library version from 2.4 to 2.41 is subject to a double free if some previous allocation fails. It can be accomplished either by a malloc failure or by using an interposed malloc that injects random malloc failures. The double free can allow buffer manipulation depending of how the regex is constructed. This issue affects all architectures and ABIs supported by the GNU C library.
