Summary
IBM Security Identity Manager is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery.
Vulnerability Details
CVEID: CVE-2014-6168
DESCRIPTION: IBM Security Identity Manager is vulnerable to cross-site request
forgery, caused by improper validation of user-supplied input. By persuading
an authenticated user to visit a malicious Web site, a remote attacker could
send a malformed HTTP request. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to
perform cross-site scripting attacks, Web cache poisoning, and other malicious
activities.
The vulnerability can be accessed from a remote network, is of medium
complexity, and requires authentication. Successful exploit will not
compromise the confidentiality of the system, could partially compromise the
integrity of the system, and will not compromise the accessibility of the
system.
