CVE-2016-9693
IBM Business Process Manager 7.5, 8.0, and 8.5 has a file download capability that is vulnerable to a set of attacks.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.53%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
Description
IBM Business Process Manager 7.5, 8.0, and 8.5 has a file download capability that is vulnerable to a set of attacks. Ultimately, an attacker can cause an unauthenticated victim to download a malicious payload.
