CVE-2024-41766: Inefficient Regular Expression Complexity

IBM Engineering Lifecycle Optimization - Publishing 7.0.2 and 7.0.3 could allow a remote attacker to cause a denial of service using a complex regular expression...

Security Bulletin: IBM Engineering Lifecycle Optimization - Engineering Publishing uses a web link with untrusted references to an external site.

Summary When an user clicks a link to an external site, and that link has the target="blank" attribute, then the new site will be opened into a new tab or window, but will share its process with the original tab or window. The window.opener object stores information from the original window, so i...

Security Bulletin: IBM Engineering Lifecycle Optimization - Publishing could allow a remote attacker to cause a denial of service using a complex regular expression.

Summary Regular expressions are a formal language for identifying strings of text, parsing, and matching them. Most regular expressions engines are built over a non-deterministic Finite Automaton NFA. They use backtracking and, while these regular expression engines can quickly confirm a positive...
