Security Bulletin
This security bulletin contains information about 4 vulnerabilities.
1) Input validation error
EUVDB-ID: #VU81307
Risk: Low
CVSSv3.1: 2.7 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2023-44270
CWE-ID:
CWE-20 - Improper input validation
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform spoofing attack.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of external CSS files when parsing the "\r" character. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application and perform spoofing attack.
Install update from vendor's website.
Vulnerable software versionsIBM Security QRadar Analyst Workflow: before 2.32.1

Q & A
Can this vulnerability be exploited remotely?
Yes. This vulnerability can be exploited by a remote non-authenticated attacker via the Internet.
How the attacker can exploit this vulnerability?
The attacker would have to send a specially crafted request to the affected application in order to exploit this vulnerability.
Is there known malware, which exploits this vulnerability?
No. We are not aware of malware exploiting this vulnerability.
2) Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF)
EUVDB-ID: #VU86944
Risk: Medium
CVSSv3.1: 6.3 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2023-42282
CWE-ID:
CWE-918 - Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF)
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe disclosed vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform SSRF attacks.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input within the isPublic() function. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request and trick the application to initiate requests to arbitrary systems.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker gain access to sensitive data, located in the local network or send malicious requests to other servers from the vulnerable system.

4) Open redirect
EUVDB-ID: #VU85369
Risk: Low
CVSSv3.1: 3 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:N/A:N/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2023-26159
CWE-ID:
CWE-601 - URL Redirection to Untrusted Site ('Open Redirect')
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to redirect victims to arbitrary URL.
The vulnerability exists due to improper sanitization of user-supplied data within the url.parse() function. A remote attacker can create a link that leads to a trusted website, however, when clicked, redirects the victim to arbitrary domain.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to perform a phishing attack and steal potentially sensitive information.
