CVE-2026-16714

IBM API Connect version 5.0.6.0 is vulnerable to an XML External Entity Injection (XXE) attack when processing XML data. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to expose sensitive information or consume memory resources.

IBM API Connect version 5.0.0.0 could allow a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information due to improper handling of requests to the Developer Portal.

IBM API Connect version 5.0.6.0 could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary commands on the system, caused by improper validation of URLs for the Developer Portal. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by crafting a malicious URL.

IBM API Connect versions 12.1.0.0 through 12.1.1.2 do not sufficiently verify identity information supplied in requests. A remote attacker could impersonate another user, obtain sensitive information, and modify API configurations.

IBM API Connect versions 10.0.8.0 through 10.0.8.12 and 12.1.0.0 through 12.1.1.2 are vulnerable to server-side request forgery. The affected component can be made to send requests to unintended destinations and return the response to the attacker.

IBM API Connect versions 10.0.8.0 through 10.0.8.12 and 12.1.0.0 through 12.1.1.2 are vulnerable to a Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS) attack and to improper neutralization of wildcard query operators.

IBM API Connect versions 10.0.8.0 through 10.0.8.12 and 12.1.0.0 through 12.1.1.2 improperly neutralize argument delimiters. A remote authenticated attacker could access and modify other tenants' portal data.

IBM API Connect versions 10.0.8.0 through 10.0.8.12 and 12.1.0.0 through 12.1.1.2 improperly handle case sensitivity. Access controls are not applied consistently to all request variations, potentially allowing a remote attacker to execute unauthorized administrative operations and obtain sensitive information.

IBM API Connect versions 10.0.8.0 through 10.0.8.12 and 12.1.0.0 through 12.1.1.2 improperly neutralize special elements in OS commands. A remote attacker could execute arbitrary code.

IBM API Connect versions 10.0.8.0 through 10.0.8.12 and 12.1.0.0 through 12.1.1.2 use hard-coded credentials. A remote attacker could gain full administrative control.
