Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2021-20424 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: IBM Cloud Pak for Applications. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-20424/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-20424/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-20424","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-20424/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-20424","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-cfpf-6674-h88v"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cloud_service","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"IBM Cloud Pak","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Remote attackers can obtain sensitive information via detailed technical error messages in IBM Cloud Pak for Applications, aiding further attacks.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"information_disclosure"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"ibm","cpe":[{"product":"cloud_pak_for_applications","vendor":"ibm"}],"cvss":{"score":4.3,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AC:L/I:N/A:N/PR:L/UI:N/AV:N/C:L/S:U/E:U/RC:C/RL:O","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-209","name":"Generation of Error Message Containing Sensitive Information"}],"description":"IBM Cloud Pak for Applications 4.3 could allow a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information when a detailed technical error message is returned in the browser.
