Summary
IBM API Connect 12.1.0.0 through 12.1.1.2 allows low-privileged users to query arbitrary indices and read sensitive data due to missing authorization. The flaw enables unauthorized access to information.
Risk Assessment
Low-privileged users may access sensitive data, breaching confidentiality and potentially leaking business information.
Recommendation
Update IBM API Connect to a version containing the authorization fix. In the meantime, restrict access to index query interfaces and monitor for unusual user activity.

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.
- CVE-2017-1379High
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.
- CVE-2017-1161High
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.
- CVE-2026-18838Critical
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.
- CVE-2026-18836Critical
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.
- CVE-2026-18535Critical
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.
- CVE-2026-17410Critical
