Multiple vulnerabilities in IBM Sterling B2B Integrator

1) Insufficient Session Expiration

EUVDB-ID: #VU55642

Risk: Low

CVSSv4.0: 0.4 [CVSS:4.0/AV:P/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear]

CVE-ID: CVE-2021-34428

CWE-ID: CWE-613 - Insufficient Session Expiration

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows an attacker to gain access to sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient session expiration issue.
