The version of IBM Cognos Analytics installed on the remote host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities, including the following:

  • OpenSSL is vulnerable to a buffer overflow, caused by improper bounds checking by the EVP_PKEY_decrypt() function within implementation of the SM2 decryption. By sending specially crafted SM2 content, a remote attacker could overflow a buffer and execute arbitrary code on the system or cause the application to crash. (CVE-2021-3711)

  • Async could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system, caused by prototype pollution in the mapValues() method. By persuading a victim to open a specially-crafted file, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code on the system.
    (CVE-2021-43138)

  • Apache Commons IO could allow a remote attacker to traverse directories on the system, caused by improper input validation by the FileNameUtils.normalize method. An attacker could send a specially-crafted URL request containing ‘dot dot’ sequences (/…/) to view arbitrary files on the system.
    (CVE-2021-29425)

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