IBM i 7.2, 7.3, 7.4, 7.5, and 7.6 is vulnerable to authentication and authorization attacks due to incorrect validation processing in IBM i Netserver. A malicious actor could use the weaknesses, in conjunction with brute force authentication attacks or to bypass authority restrictions, to access the server.

IBM i 7.3, 7.4, 7.5, and 7.5 is vulnerable to a host header injection attack caused by improper neutralization of HTTP header content by IBM Navigator for i. An authenticated user can manipulate the host header in HTTP requests to change domain/IP address which may lead to unexpected behavior.
