Vulnerability Details

CVEID:CVE-2019-11745
**DESCRIPTION:**Mozilla Network Security Services (NSS), as used in Mozilla Firefox could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system, caused by an out-of-bounds write when encrypting with a block cipher. By persuading a victim to visit a specially-crafted Web site, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to corrupt the heap and execute arbitrary code on the vulnerable system or cause a denial of service.
CVSS Base score: 8.8

CVEID:CVE-2020-2654
**DESCRIPTION:**An unspecified vulnerability in Java SE related to the Java SE Libraries component could allow an unauthenticated attacker to cause a denial of service resulting in a low availability impact using unknown attack vectors.
CVSS Base score: 3.7
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/174601 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L)

CVEID:CVE-2019-4704
**DESCRIPTION:**IBM Security Identity Manager does not set the secure attribute on authorization tokens or session cookies. Attackers may be able to get the cookie values by sending a http:// link to a user or by planting this link in a site the user goes to. The cookie will be sent to the insecure link and the attacker can then obtain the cookie value by snooping the traffic.
