CVE-2020-4544Network attack vector

Authenticated information disclosure via detailed error messages

Published Jan 8, 2021 · Updated Sep 17, 2024

Information disclosure in IBM Jazz Foundation 6.0.2 through 7.0.1 allows remote authenticated users to read sensitive error details. The browser response returns detailed technical error content containing sensitive system information rather than a generic error. IBM has not disclosed the request or error path that triggers the response; authenticated access is required, and the exposed details can support further attacks.
