An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2024-40702 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Ibm Cognos Controller. 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-2024-40702/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-40702/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-40702","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-40702/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-40702","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-xf84-f9vv-4vfx"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["security_bypass","data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"IBM Cognos Controller","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An attacker can bypass certificate validation to obtain valid tokens and access protected resources in IBM Cognos Controller.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"security_feature_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"ibm","cpe":[{"product":"cognos_controller","vendor":"ibm"},{"product":"controller","vendor":"ibm"}],"cvss":{"score":8.2,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-295","name":"Improper Certificate Validation"}],"description":"IBM Cognos Controller 11.0.0 through 11.0.1 and IBM Controller 11.1.0 could allow an unauthorized user to obtain valid tokens to gain access to protected resources due to improper certificate validation.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"IBM Cognos Controller improper certificate validation","id":"CVE-2024-40702","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"ibm:cognos_controller","products":["ibm:cognos_controller"],"type":"security_feature_bypass","year":"2024"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"IBM Cognos Analytics information disclosure","id":"CVE-2024-40703"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"IBM Security Verify Access cross-site scripting","id":"CVE-2024-40700"},"products":["Cognos Controller","Controller"],"published":"2025-01-07","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"IBM Cognos Controller code execution","id":"CVE-2024-28777","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-02-19"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"IBM Cognos Controller information disclosure","id":"CVE-2024-52902","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-02-19"},{"cvss_score":8.2,"headline":"IBM Cognos Controller XML external entity injection","id":"CVE-2023-47160","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-02-19"},{"cvss_score":8,"headline":"IBM Cognos Controller CSV injection","id":"CVE-2024-45084","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-02-19"},{"cvss_score":8,"headline":"IBM Cognos Controller file upload","id":"CVE-2024-40691","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-12-03"},{"cvss_score":8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in Cognos Controller","id":"CVE-2020-4685","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-11-11"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"yes","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-01-07","vendors":["IBM"]},"summary":"An attacker can bypass certificate validation to obtain valid tokens and access protected resources in IBM Cognos Controller.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-40702/"}
