Potential open redirect vulnerability in opentext Service Management Automation X (SMAX) versions 2020.05, 2020.08, 2020.11, 2021.02, 2021.05, 2021.08, 2021.11, 2022.05, 2022.11 and opentext Asset Management X (AMX) versions 2021.08, 2021.11, 2022.05, 2022.11. The vulnerability could allow attackers to redirect a user to malicious websites.

User authentication with username and password credentials is ineffective in OpenText (Micro Focus) Visual COBOL, COBOL Server, Enterprise Developer, and Enterprise Server (including product variants such as Enterprise Test Server), versions 7.0 patch updates 19 and 20, 8.0 patch updates 8 and 9, and 9.0 patch update 1, when LDAP-based authentication is used with certain configurations. When the vulnerability is active, authentication succeeds with any valid username, regardless of whether the password is correct; it may also succeed with an invalid username (and any password). This allows an attacker with access to the product to impersonate any user. Mitigations: The issue is corrected in the upcoming patch update for each affected product. Product overlays and workaround instructions are available through OpenText Support. The vulnerable configurations are believed to be uncommon. Administrators can test for the vulnerability in their installations by attempting to sign on to a Visual COBOL or Enterprise Server component such as ESCWA using a valid username and incorrect password.

The client in OpenText Archive Center Administration through 21.2 allows XXE attacks. Authenticated users of the OpenText Archive Center Administration client (Versions 16.2.3, 21.2, and older versions) could upload XML files to the application that it did not sufficiently validate. As a result, attackers could craft XML files that, when processed by the application, would cause a negative security impact such as data exfiltration or localized denial of service against the application instance and system of the user running it.

OpenText Documentum Content Server before 23.2 has a flaw that allows for privilege escalation from a non-privileged Documentum user to root. The software comes prepackaged with a root owned SUID binary dm_secure_writer. The binary has security controls in place preventing creation of a file in a non-owned directory, or as the root user. However, these controls can be carefully bypassed to allow for an arbitrary file write as root.

OpenText BizManager before 16.6.0.1 does not perform proper validation during the change-password operation. This allows any authenticated user to change the password of any other user, including the Administrator account.

A remote OScript execution issue was discovered in OpenText Content Suite Platform 22.1 (16.2.19.1803). Multiple endpoints allow the user to pass the parameter htmlFile, which is included in the HTML output rendering pipeline of a request. Because the Content Server evaluates and executes Oscript code in HTML files, it is possible for an attacker to execute Oscript code. The Oscript scripting language allows the attacker (for example) to manipulate files on the filesystem, create new network connections, or execute OS commands.

An issue was discovered in OpenText Content Suite Platform 22.1 (16.2.19.1803). The request handler for ll.KeepAliveSession sets a valid AdminPwd cookie even when the Web Admin password was not entered. This allows access to endpoints, which require a valid AdminPwd cookie, without knowing the password.

An issue was discovered in OpenText Content Suite Platform 22.1 (16.2.19.1803). The Common Gateway Interface (CGI) program cs.exe allows an attacker to increase/decrease an arbitrary memory address by 1 and trigger a call to a method of a vftable with a vftable pointer value chosen by the attacker.

An issue was discovered in OpenText Content Suite Platform 22.1 (16.2.19.1803). The endpoint itemtemplate.createtemplate2 allows a low-privilege user to delete arbitrary files on the server's local filesystem.

An issue was discovered in OpenText Content Suite Platform 22.1 (16.2.19.1803). The action xmlexport accepts the parameter requestContext. If this parameter is present, the response includes most of the HTTP headers sent to the server and some of the CGI variables like remote_adde and server_name, which is an information disclosure.

An issue was discovered in OpenText Content Suite Platform 22.1 (16.2.19.1803). The endpoint notify.localizeEmailTemplate allows a low-privilege user to evaluate webreports.

An issue was discovered in OpenText Content Suite Platform 22.1 (16.2.19.1803). The Java application server can be used to bypass the authentication of the QDS endpoints of the Content Server. These endpoints can be used to create objects and execute arbitrary code.

There are multiple persistent cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in the web interface of OpenText Content Server Version 20.3. The application allows a remote attacker to introduce arbitrary JavaScript by crafting malicious form values that are later not sanitized.

OpenText Brava! Enterprise and Brava! Server 7.5 through 16.4 configure excessive permissions by default on Windows. During installation, a displaylistcache file share is created on the Windows server with full read and write permissions for the Everyone group at both the NTFS and Share levels. The share is used to retrieve documents for processing, and to store processed documents for display in the browser. The only required share level access is read/write by the JobProcessor service account. At the local filesystem level, the only additional required permissions would be read/write from the servlet engine, such as Tomcat. (The affected server components are not installed with Content Server by default, and must be installed separately.) NOTE: the vendor's position is that customers are not supposed to use this default setting without consulting the documentation.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in OpenText Portal 7.4.4 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the vgnextoid parameter to a menuitem URI.
