GNU Bash through 4.3 processes trailing strings after function definitions in the values of environment variables, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted environment, as demonstrated by vectors involving the ForceCommand feature in OpenSSH sshd, the mod_cgi and mod_cgid modules in the Apache HTTP Server, scripts executed by unspecified DHCP clients, and other situations in which setting the environment occurs across a privilege boundary from Bash execution, aka "ShellShock." NOTE: the original fix for this issue was incorrect; CVE-2014-7169 has been assigned to cover the vulnerability that is still present after the incorrect fix.

The HTTP/2 protocol allows a denial of service (server resource consumption) because request cancellation can reset many streams quickly, as exploited in the wild in August through October 2023.

IBM Security Access Manager Appliance 8.0.0 and 9.0.0 specifies permissions for a security-critical resource in a way that allows that resource to be read or modified by unintended actors. IBM X-Force ID: 128378.

IBM Security Access Manager for Web 7.0.0, 8.0.0, and 9.0.0 uses weaker than expected cryptographic algorithms that could allow an attacker to decrypt highly sensitive information. IBM Reference #: 1996868.

The IBM Security Access Manager appliance includes configuration files that contain obfuscated plaintext-passwords which authenticated users can access.

IBM Security Access Manager for Web 7.0.0, 8.0.0, and 9.0.0 could allow a remote attacker to bypass security restrictions, caused by improper content validation. By persuading a victim to open specially-crafted content, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to bypass validation and load a page with malicious content.

IBM Security Access Manager for Web is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by an XML External Entity Injection (XXE) error when processing XML data. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to expose highly sensitive information or consume all available memory resources.

IBM Security Access Manager for Web could allow an unauthenticated user to gain access to sensitive information by entering invalid file names.

IBM Security Access Manager for Web could allow a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information, caused by the failure to properly enable HTTP Strict Transport Security. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to obtain sensitive information using man in the middle techniques.

IBM Security Access Manager for Web is vulnerable to SQL injection. A remote attacker could send specially-crafted SQL statements which could allow the attacker to view information in the back-end database.
