Summary

IBM Engineering Requirements Quality Assistant On-Premises affected by multiple vulnerabilites (CVE-2021-22939, CVE-2021-22931, CVE-2020-7598) which allowed a remote attacker to exploit this vulnerability to add or modify properties of Object.prototype, connect to servers using an expired certificate and injection vulnerabilities in applications using the library by Domain Hijacking.

Vulnerability Details

CVEID:CVE-2021-22939
**DESCRIPTION:**Node.js could allow a remote attacker to bypass security restrictions. If the https API was used incorrectly and “undefined” was in passed for the “rejectUnauthorized” parameter, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to connect to servers using an expired certificate.
CVSS Base score: 3.7
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/207233 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N)

CVEID:CVE-2021-22931
**DESCRIPTION:**Node.js could provide weaker than expected security, caused by missing input validation on hostnames returned by DNS servers. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause output of wrong hostnames leading to Domain Hijacking and and injection vulnerabilities in applications using the library.
CVSS Base score: 5
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/207230 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L)

CVEID:CVE-2020-7598
**DESCRIPTION:**minimist could provide weaker than expected security, caused by a prototype pollution flaw. By sending a specially crafted request, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to add or modify properties of Object.prototype.
CVSS Base score: 5.3
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/177780 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N)
