Summary
IBM API Connect versions 10.0.8.0 through 10.0.8.12 and 12.1.0.0 through 12.1.1.2 are affected. Input is not properly neutralized before it is used in database queries, which is an SQL injection flaw (CWE-89). An authenticated attacker can view, add, modify, or delete information in the back-end database. The CVSS 3.1 vector rates the attack as network-based with low complexity and low privileges required.
