IBM DevOps Velocity 5.0.0 and IBM UrbanCode Velocity 4.0.0 through 4.0. 25 uses Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) which could allow an attacker to carry out privileged actions and retrieve sensitive information as the domain name is not being limited to only trusted domains.
The product uses a web-client protection mechanism such as a Content Security Policy (CSP) or cross-domain policy file, but the policy includes untrusted domains with which the web client is allowed to communicate.
Name | Vendor | Start Version | End Version |
---|---|---|---|
Devops_velocity | Ibm | 5.0.0 (including) | 5.0.0 (including) |
Urbancode_velocity | Ibm | 4.0.0 (including) | 4.0.15 (including) |
If a cross-domain policy file includes domains that should not be trusted, such as when using wildcards under a high-level domain, then the application could be attacked by these untrusted domains. In many cases, the attack can be launched without the victim even being aware of it.
