IBM Cognos Controller 10.4.0, 10.4.1, and 10.4.2 is vulnerable to an XML External Entity Injection (XXE) attack when processing XML data. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to expose sensitive information or consume memory resources. IBM X-Force ID: 190839.

IBM Cognos Controller 10.4.0, 10.4.1, and 10.4.2 is vulnerable to an XML External Entity Injection (XXE) attack when processing XML data. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to expose sensitive information or consume memory resources. IBM X-Force ID: 190838.

A low level user of IBM Cognos Controller 10.3.0, 10.3.1, 10.4.0, 10.4.1, and 10.4.2 who has Administration rights to the server where the application is installed, can escalate their privilege from Low level to Super Admin and gain access to Create/Update/Delete any level of user in Cognos Controller. IBM X-Force ID: 186625.

IBM Cognos Controller stores sensitive information in URL parameters. This may lead to information disclosure if unauthorized parties have access to the URLs via server logs, referrer header or browser history. IBM X-Force ID: 162659.

IBM Cognos Controller 10.3.0, 10.3.1, 10.4.0, and 10.4.1 could allow an authenticated user to obtain sensitive information due to easy to guess session identifier names. IBM X-Force ID: 162658.

IBM Cognos Controller 10.2.0, 10.2.1, 10.3.0, 10.3.1, and 10.4.0 allows web pages to be stored locally which can be read by another user on the system. IBM X-Force ID: 158882.

IBM Cognos Controller 10.2.0, 10.2.1, 10.3.0, 10.3.1, and 10.4.0 could allow a remote attacker to bypass security restrictions, caused by an error related to insecure HTTP Methods. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to gain access to the system. IBM X-Force ID: 158881.

IBM Cognos Controller 10.3.0, 10.3.1, 10.4.0, and 10.4.1 uses weaker than expected cryptographic algorithms that could allow an attacker to decrypt highly sensitive information. IBM X-Force ID: 158880.

IBM Cognos Controller 10.2.0, 10.2.1, 10.3.0, 10.3.1, and 10.4.0 allows web pages to be stored locally which can be read by another user on the system. IBM X-Force ID: 158879.

IBM Cognos Controller 10.2.0, 10.2.1, 10.3.0, 10.3.1, and 10.4.0 could allow a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information, caused by a flaw in the HTTP OPTIONS method, aka Optionsbleed. By sending an OPTIONS HTTP request, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to read secret data from process memory and obtain sensitive information. IBM X-Force ID: 158878.

IBM Cognos Controller 10.3.0, 10.3.1, 10.4.0, and 10.4.1 does not set the secure attribute on authorization tokens or session cookies. This could allow an attacker to obtain sensitive information using man in the middle techniques. IBM X-Force ID: 158876.

IBM Cognos Controller 10.2.0, 10.2.1, 10.3.0, 10.3.1, and 10.4.0 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: 158332.
