Summary

Security Vulnerabilities in Java packages affect IBM Voice Gateway. The vulnerabilities have been addressed.

Vulnerability Details

CVEID:CVE-2010-2245
**DESCRIPTION:**Apache Wink could allow a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information, caused by an XML external entity (XXE) error when processing XML data. By using a specially-crafted XML file. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to read arbitrary files or cause a denial of service.
CVSS Base score: 6.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/134129 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:L)

CVEID:CVE-2022-24823
**DESCRIPTION:**Netty could allow a local authenticated attacker to obtain sensitive information, caused by a flaw when temporary storing uploads on the disk is enabled. By gaining access to the local system temporary directory, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to obtain sensitive information, and use this information to launch further attacks against the affected system.
CVSS Base score: 5.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/225922 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N)

CVEID:CVE-2014-3577
**DESCRIPTION:**Apache HttpComponents could allow a remote attacker to conduct spoofing attacks, caused by the failure to verify that the server hostname matches a domain name in the Subject’s Common Name (CN) or SubjectAltName field of certificates. By persuading a victim to visit a Web site containing a specially-crafted certificate, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability using man-in-the-middle techniques to spoof an SSL server.
CVSS Base score: 4.3
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/95327 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:N)

CVEID:CVE-2015-5262
**DESCRIPTION:**Apache Commons is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by the failure to apply a configured connection during the initial handshake of an HTTPS connection by the HttpClient component. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to accumulate multiple connections and exhaust all available resources.
CVSS Base score: 5.3
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/106932 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L)

CVEID:CVE-2013-4366
**DESCRIPTION:**An unspecified error in http/impl/client/HttpClientBuilder.java in Apache HttpClient using attack vectors involving hostname verification has an unknown impact.
CVSS Base score: 5.3
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/134307 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)

CVEID:CVE-2020-13956
**DESCRIPTION:**Apache HttpClient could allow a remote attacker to bypass security restrictions, caused by the improper handling of malformed authority component in request URIs. By passing request URIs to the library as java.net.URI object, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to pick the wrong target host for request execution.
CVSS Base score: 5.3
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/189572 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)

**IBM X-Force ID:**220912
**DESCRIPTION:**Apache HttpComponents Client could allow a remote attacker to traverse directories on the system, caused by improper validation of user requests. An attacker could send a specially-crafted URL request containing “dot dot” sequences (/…/) to view files on the system.
CVSS Base score: 5.3
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/220912 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N)
