Description Preview

A vulnerability in IBM Jazz Foundation versions 7.0.2 and 7.0.3 could allow users to modify their dashboards using specially crafted HTTP requests due to improper access control mechanisms. This security flaw could potentially lead to unauthorized dashboard modifications.

Overview

This vulnerability affects IBM Jazz Foundation versions 7.0.2 and 7.0.3. The issue stems from insufficient access control mechanisms that fail to properly validate user permissions when processing HTTP requests related to dashboard modifications. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending specially crafted HTTP requests to modify dashboard settings that they should not have permission to change. While this vulnerability doesn't appear to allow for complete system compromise, it does represent a security weakness that could potentially be part of a larger attack chain or lead to information disclosure through dashboard manipulation.

Remediation

Organizations using affected versions of IBM Jazz Foundation should:

  1. Update to the latest version of IBM Jazz Foundation as recommended by IBM in their security advisory
  2. Review any dashboard configurations for unauthorized changes
  3. Implement proper network segmentation to limit access to the Jazz Foundation interface
  4. Monitor system logs for suspicious HTTP requests that might indicate exploitation attempts
  5. Follow IBM's specific remediation guidance provided in their advisory at https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/node/7176207
