IBM Integration Bus 8.x < 8.0.0.8 / 9.x < 9.0.0.6 / 10.x < 10.0.0.5 SOAP FLOWS XXE DoS

critical Nessus Plugin ID 97578

Language:

Synopsis

An enterprise service bus application installed on the remote host is affected by a denial of service vulnerability.

Description

The version of IBM Integration Bus (formerly known as IBM WebSphere Message Broker) is 8.x prior to 8.0.0.8, 9.x prior to 9.0.0.6, or 10.x prior to 10.0.0.5. It is, therefore, affected by a denial of service vulnerability due to an XML external entity (XXE) injection error in SOAP FLOWS when processing XML data. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to disclose sensitive information or cause a denial of service condition.

Solution

Upgrade to IBM Integration Bus version 8.0.0.8 / 9.0.0.6 / 10.0.0.5 or later.
