IBM Cognos Business Intelligence 10.2.1.1

IBM Cognos Business Intelligence 10.2 could allow a user with lower privilege Capabilities to adopt the Capabilities of a higher-privilege user by intercepting the higher-privilege user's cookie value from its HTTP request and then reusing it in subsequent requests. IBM Reference #: 1993718.

IBM Cognos Business Intelligence 10.2, 10.2.1, 10.2.1.1, and 10.2.2, under specialized circumstances, could expose plain text credentials to a local user. IBM X-Force ID: 136149.

IBM Cognos Business Intelligence 10.1 and 10.2 is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by an XML External Entity Injection (XXE) error when processing XML data. A remote authenticated attacker could exploit this vulnerability to consume all available CPU resources and cause a denial of service. IBM X-Force ID: 110563.

IBM Cognos Business Intelligence 10.2, 10.2.1, 10.2.1.1, and 10.2.2 is vulnerable to cross-site scripting. This vulnerability allows users to embed arbitrary JavaScript code in the Web UI thus altering the intended functionality potentially leading to credentials disclosure within a trusted session. IBM X-Force ID: 128624.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in IBM Cognos TM1, as used in IBM Cognos Business Intelligence 10.2 before IF20, 10.2.1 before IF17, 10.2.1.1 before IF16, 10.2.2 before IF12, and 10.1.1 before IF19, allows remote authenticated users to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via a crafted URL.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in IBM Cognos Business Intelligence 10.2 before IF20, 10.2.1 before IF17, 10.2.1.1 before IF16, 10.2.2 before IF12, and 10.1.1 before IF19 allows remote authenticated users to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via a crafted URL.

IBM Cognos Business Intelligence and IBM Cognos Analytics are vulnerable to cross-site scripting, caused by improper validation of user-supplied input. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability using a specially-crafted URL to execute script in a victim's Web browser within the security context of the hosting Web site, once the URL is clicked. An attacker could use this vulnerability to steal the victim's cookie-based authentication credentials.
