Description

This security bulletin contains information about 4 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-17336)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to the Data access layer component exposes credentials for shared data sources. A remote authenticated attacker can gain access to information that can lead to obtaining credentials used to access Spotfire data sources.

To successful exploitation of this vulnerability the attacker would need privileges to save a Spotfire file to the library, and only applies in a situation where NTLM credentials, or a credentials profile is in use.


2) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-17335)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to the Data access layer component exposes user-specific cached data. A remote authenticated attacker with privileges to save a Spotfire file to the library can gain unauthorized access to data cached from a data source, or a portion of a data source.


3) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-17334)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input in the Visualizations component when processing DXP files. A remote attacker can trick a victim to store the DXP files to the Spotfire library and execute arbitrary code on the target system.


4) Cross-site scripting (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-17337)

The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data in the Spotfire library component. A remote attacker can trick the victim to follow a specially crafted link and execute arbitrary HTML and script code in user's browser in context of vulnerable website.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to steal potentially sensitive information, change appearance of the web page, perform phishing and drive-by-download attacks.
