Summary

IBM API Connect 10.0.8.0 through 10.0.8.12 and 12.1.0.0 through 12.1.1.2 does not sufficiently check uploaded content before processing it (CWE-434). A remote authenticated attacker can execute arbitrary code on the server.

Description from the CNA

IBM API Connect 10.0.8.0 through 10.0.8.12 and 12.1.0.0 through 12.1.1.2 could allow a remote authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code due to insufficient validation of uploaded content. Content uploaded to the product is not sufficiently checked before it is processed, which could allow code to run on the server.
