IBM Connect:Direct for UNIX 6.1.0, 6.0.0, 4.3.0, and 4.2.0 can allow a local or remote user to obtain an authenticated CLI session due to improper authentication methods. IBM X-Force ID: 188516.

IBM Sterling Connect Direct for Microsoft Windows 4.7, 4.8, 6.0, and 6.1 could allow a remote attacker to cause a denial of service, caused by a buffer over-read. Bysending a specially crafted request, the attacker could cause the application to crash. IBM X-Force ID: 188906.

IBM Sterling Connect:Direct for UNIX 4.2.0, 4.3.0, 6.0.0, and 6.1.0 is vulnerable to a stack based buffer ovreflow, caused by improper bounds checking. A local attacker could manipulate CD UNIX to obtain root provileges. IBM X-Force ID: 184578.

IBM Sterling Connect:Direct for UNIX 4.2.0, 4.3.0, and 6.0.0 could allow a user with restricted sudo access on a system to manipulate CD UNIX to gain full sudo access. IBM X-Force ID: 152532.

IBM Sterling Connect:Direct 4.5.00, 4.5.01, 4.6.0 before 4.6.0.6 iFix008, and 4.7.0 before 4.7.0.4 on Windows allows local users to gain privileges via unspecified vectors.

IBM Sterling Connect:Direct 4.5.00, 4.5.01, 4.6.0 before 4.6.0.6 iFix008, and 4.7.0 before 4.7.0.4 on Windows allows local users to cause a denial of service via unspecified vectors.

IBM Sterling Connect:Direct for Unix 4.1.0 before 4.1.0.4 iFix073 and 4.2.0 before 4.2.0.4 iFix003 uses default file permissions of 0664, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information via standard filesystem operations.

The Browser in IBM Sterling Connect:Direct 1.4 before 1.4.0.11 and 1.5 through 1.5.0.1 does not close pages upon the timeout of a session, which allows physically proximate attackers to obtain sensitive administrative-console information by reading the screen of an unattended workstation.

The Browser in IBM Sterling Connect:Direct 1.4 before 1.4.0.11 and 1.5 through 1.5.0.1 does not set the secure flag for the session cookie in an https session, which makes it easier for remote attackers to capture this cookie by intercepting its transmission within an http session.

Stack-based buffer overflow in Open Direct Connect Hub (aka Open DC Hub or OpenDCHub) 0.8.1 allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary code via a long MyINFO message.
