IBM Cognos Analytics 11.2.0, 11.2.1, 11.2.2, 11.2.3, 11.2.4, 12.0.0, 12.0.1, and 12.0.2 is potentially vulnerable to cross site scripting (XSS). A remote attacker could execute malicious commands due to improper validation of column headings in Cognos Assistant. IBM X-Force ID: 282780.

IBM Cognos Analytics 11.2.0 through 11.2.4 and 12.0.0 through 12.0.2 is vulnerable to injection attacks in application logging by not sanitizing user provided data. This could lead to further attacks against the system. IBM X-Force ID: 282956.

IBM Cognos Analytics 11.1.7, 11.2.4, and 12.0.0 is vulnerable to cross-site scripting. This vulnerability allows users to embed arbitrary JavaScript code in the Web UI thus altering the intended functionality potentially leading to credentials disclosure within a trusted session. IBM X-Force ID: 267451.

IBM Cognos Analytics 11.1.7, 11.2.4, and 12.0.0 is vulnerable to cross-site scripting. This vulnerability allows users to embed arbitrary JavaScript code in the Web UI thus altering the intended functionality potentially leading to credentials disclosure within a trusted session. IBM X-Force ID: 260744.

IBM Cognos Analytics 11.1.7, 11.2.4, and 12.0.0 is vulnerable to form action hijacking where it is possible to modify the form action to reference an arbitrary path. IBM X-Force ID: 255898.

IBM Cognos Analytics 11.1.7, 11.2.4, and 12.0.0 could be vulnerable to information leakage due to unverified sources in messages sent between Windows objects of different origins. IBM X-Force ID: 254290.

IBM Cognos Analytics Mobile Server 11.1.7, 11.2.4, and 12.0.0 is vulnerable to Denial of Service due to due to weak or absence of rate limiting. By making unlimited http requests, it is possible for a single user to exhaust server resources over a period of time making service unavailable for other legitimate users. IBM X-Force ID: 230510.

IBM Cognos Analytics 11.1.7, 11.2.0, and 11.2.1 is vulnerable to server-side request forgery (SSRF). This may allow an authenticated attacker to send unauthorized requests from the system, potentially leading to network enumeration or facilitating other attacks. IBM X-Force ID: 257705.

IBM Cognos Analytics 11.1.7, 11.2.0, and 11.2.1 could allow a remote attacker to obtain system information without authentication which could be used in reconnaissance to gather information that could be used for future attacks. IBM X-Force ID: 257703.

IBM Cognos Analytics 11.1 and 11.2 is vulnerable to stored cross-site scripting, caused by improper validation of SVG Files in Custom Visualizations. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute scripts in a victim's Web browser within the security context of the hosting Web site. An attacker could use this vulnerability to steal the victim's cookie-based authentication credentials. IBM X-Force ID: 251214.
