Summary

IBM Watson Discovery for IBM Cloud Pak for Data contains a vulnerable version of Netty.

Vulnerability Details

CVEID:CVE-2019-16869
**DESCRIPTION:**Netty is vulnerable to HTTP request smuggling, caused by a flaw when handling unusual whitespaces before the colon in HTTP headers. By sending a specially-crafted request, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to poison the web cache, bypass web application firewall protection, and conduct XSS attacks.
CVSS Base score: 6.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/167672 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N)

CVEID:CVE-2019-9515
**DESCRIPTION:**Multiple vendors are vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by a Settings Flood attack. By sending a stream of SETTINGS frames to the peer, a remote attacker could consume excessive CPU resources.
CVSS Base score: 7.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/165181 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H)

CVEID:CVE-2019-9518
**DESCRIPTION:**Multiple vendors are vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by a Empty Frame Flooding attack. By sending a stream of frames with an empty payload and without the end-of-stream flag, a remote attacker could consume excessive CPU resources.
CVSS Base score: 7.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/164904 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H)

CVEID:CVE-2019-9512
**DESCRIPTION:**Multiple vendors are vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by a Ping Flood attack. By sending continual pings to an HTTP/2 peer, a remote attacker could consume excessive CPU resources.
CVSS Base score: 7.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/164903 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H)

CVEID:CVE-2019-9514
**DESCRIPTION:**Multiple vendors are vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by a Reset Flood attack. By opening a number of streams and sending an invalid request over each stream, a remote attacker could consume excessive CPU resources.
CVSS Base score: 7.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/164640 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H)
