CVE-2024-31897Network attack vector

Authenticated network enumeration via document viewer requests

Published Jul 8, 2024 · Updated Aug 2, 2024

Server-side request forgery in IBM Cloud Pak for Business Automation allows remote authenticated users to send unauthorized server-side requests. The flaw is in the Daeja ViewONE Virtual document viewer within Business Automation Navigator, but IBM has not disclosed the request handler, attacker-controlled field, or validation failure. Valid application access is required; successful exploitation exposes server-reachable network resources to enumeration without a reported data-write or service-interruption impact.
