Summary

IBM Aspera Connect, a desktop transfer client, has multiple flaws in its local HTTP service that let a remote attacker read sensitive information and change host trust settings. The attacker must first lure a user into visiting a malicious web page, and the attack needs low-privilege access to the system.

Read the original description

IBM Aspera Connect 1.6.1 through 4.2.19 could allow a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information and modify host trust configuration due to missing authentication and overly permissive cross-origin access controls in the local HTTP service. By persuading a victim to visit a malicious web page, an attacker could perform unauthorized cross-origin requests to read and modify configuration.
