CVE-2020-4529Network attack vector

Authenticated unauthorized server requests via direct-print applet

Published Jun 8, 2020 · Updated Sep 17, 2024

Server-side request forgery in IBM Maximo Asset Management 7.6.0 and 7.6.1 allows remote authenticated users to send unauthorized requests. The direct-print applet path accepts an attacker-selected outbound destination without adequately restricting where the server connects. Application access and enabled applet printing are required, and resulting server-originated requests expose reachable services to network enumeration or use in further attacks.
