An IBM Spectrum Protect storage agent could allow a remote attacker to perform a brute force attack by allowing unlimited attempts to login to the storage agent without locking the administrative ID. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability using brute force techniques to gain unauthorized administrative access to both the IBM Spectrum Protect storage agent and the IBM Spectrum Protect Server 8.1.0.000 through 8.1.14 with which it communicates. IBM X-Force ID: 226326.
IBM Spectrum Protect Operations Center 8.1.0.000 through 8.1.14 could allow a remote attacker to gain details of the database, such as type and version, by sending a specially-crafted HTTP request. This information could then be used in future attacks. IBM X-Force ID: 226940.
While a user account for the IBM Spectrum Protect Server 8.1.0.000 through 8.1.14 is being established, it may be configured to use SESSIONSECURITY=TRANSITIONAL. While in this mode, it may be susceptible to an offline dictionary attack. IBM X-Force ID: 226942.
IBM Curam Social Program Management 8.0.0 and 8.0.1 does not invalidate session after logout which could allow an authenticated user to impersonate another user on the system. IBM X-Force ID: 218281.
IBM Curam Social Program Management 8.0.0 and 8.0.1 does not invalidate session after logout which could allow an authenticated user to impersonate another user on the system.
In some cases, an unsuccessful attempt to log into IBM Spectrum Protect Operations Center 8.1.0.000 through 8.1.14.000 does not cause the administrator's invalid sign-on count to be incremented on the IBM Spectrum Protect Server. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability using brute force techniques to gain unauthorized administrative access to the IBM Spectrum Protect Server. IBM X-Force ID: 226325.
IBM AIX 7.1, 7.2, 7.3, and VIOS 3.1 could allow a local user to exploit a vulnerability in the lpd daemon to cause a denial of service. IBM X-Force ID: 224444.
IBM Spectrum Protect Operations Center 8.1.12 and 8.1.13 could allow a local attacker to obtain sensitive information, caused by plain text user account passwords potentially being stored in the browser's application command history. By accessing browser history, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to obtain other user accounts' passwords. IBM X-Force ID: 226322.
IBM InfoSphere Information Server 11.7 could allow a locally authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary commands on the system by sending a specially crafted request.
IBM Spectrum Scale 5.1.0 through 5.1.3.0 uses weaker than expected cryptographic algorithms that could allow an attacker to decrypt highly sensitive information. IBM X-Force ID: 221012.
