IBM InfoSphere Information Server Multiple Vulnerabilities (April 2025)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 235080

Synopsis

The remote host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The version of IBM InfoSphere Information Server installed on the remote host is 11.7.x prior or equal to 11.7.1.6. It is, therefore, potentially affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

- IBM InfoSphere Information 11.7 Server does not invalidate session after logout which could allow an authenticated user to impersonate another user on the system. (CVE-2024-22351)

- IBM InfoSphere Information 11.7 Server authenticated user to obtain sensitive information when a detailed technical error message is returned in a request. This information could be used in further attacks against the system.
(CVE-2025-25045)

- IBM InfoSphere Information Server 11.7 DataStage Flow Designer transmits sensitive information via URL or query parameters that could be exposed to an unauthorized actor using man in the middle techniques. (CVE-2025-25046)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade IBM InfoSphere Information Server based upon the guidance specified in the vendor advisory.
