"The version of IBM MQ Server running on the remote host is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the 7123135
advisory.
- Versions of the package follow-redirects before 1.15.4 are vulnerable to Improper Input Validation due to
the improper handling of URLs by the url.parse() function. When new URL() throws an error, it can be
manipulated to misinterpret the hostname. An attacker could exploit this weakness to redirect traffic to a
malicious site, potentially leading to information disclosure, phishing attacks, or other security
breaches. (CVE-2023-26159)
