CVE-2014-3088

IBM Sametime Meeting Server 8.5.1 - Authenticated Arbitrary File Upload via Content-Type Header Manipulation

Title source: llm
STIX 2.1

Description

stconf.nsf in IBM Sametime Meeting Server 8.5.1 relies on the client to validate the file format used in wAttach?OpenForm multipart/form-data POST requests, which allows remote authenticated users to bypass intended upload restrictions by modifying the Content-Type header and file extension, as demonstrated by replacing a text/plain .txt upload with an application/octet-stream .exe upload.
