IBM Aspera Shares 1.9.9 through 1.11.0 lacks proper rate limiting on authenticated user email submissions, allowing high-privilege users to trigger email flooding or denial of service conditions. The vulnerability requires authentication at the admin or high-privilege level and results in service availability degradation rather than data compromise. EPSS exploitation probability is low (2.7 CVSS, high privilege requirement), and no public exploit code or active exploitation has been identified at time of analysis.
HTML injection in IBM Aspera Shares 1.9.9 through 1.11.0 allows authenticated remote attackers with high privileges to inject malicious HTML that executes in victim browsers within the hosting site's security context, requiring user interaction to view the injected content. CVSS 4.8 indicates low overall severity; patch is available from IBM.
HTTP header injection in IBM Aspera Shares 1.9.9 through 1.11.0 allows authenticated attackers to conduct cross-site scripting, cache poisoning, and session hijacking attacks via improper validation of HOST headers. The vulnerability requires authenticated access and carries a CVSS score of 5.4 with moderate confidentiality and integrity impact. No public exploit code or active exploitation has been confirmed.
Stored cross-site scripting in IBM Aspera Shares 1.9.9 through 1.11.0 allows authenticated high-privilege users to inject arbitrary JavaScript into the Web UI, potentially enabling credential theft or session hijacking within trusted browser sessions. CVSS 5.5 reflects the requirement for elevated privileges but global scope impact; no public exploit or active exploitation confirmed.
IBM Aspera Shares versions 1.9.9 through 1.11.0 fail to invalidate user sessions following password reset operations, enabling authenticated users to maintain access to compromised accounts and impersonate other users. The vulnerability requires prior authentication and allows limited confidentiality and integrity impact through account takeover. IBM has released a patch to address this session management defect.
IBM Aspera Shares versions 1.9.9 through 1.11.0 rely on weaker-than-expected cryptographic algorithms when protecting sensitive information, so an attacker who obtains the encrypted material could potentially decrypt it and read confidential data. The vendor rates this High (CVSS 7.5, AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N, confidentiality-only), though an independent assessment raises the attack complexity to High (AC:H) because the adversary must first capture the protected material - through an on-path/man-in-the-middle position, captured session data, or access to data at rest - before the weak cipher becomes useful. The flaw is unauthenticated and remotely reachable in principle (PR:N), but there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, EPSS is very low (0.02%, 5th percentile), and CISA's SSVC framework records Exploitation: none and Automatable: no; the overall signal therefore points to low real-world urgency despite the High CVSS, and IBM has published a fix.
IBM Aspera Shares 1.9.9 through 1.10.0 PL7 is vulnerable to an XML external entity injection (XXE) attack when processing XML data. Rated high severity (CVSS 7.1), this vulnerability is remotely exploitable, low attack complexity. No vendor patch available.
IBM Aspera Shares 1.9.0 through 1.10.0 PL6 could allow an attacker to spoof their IP address, which is written to log files, due to improper verification of 'Client-IP' headers. Rated medium severity (CVSS 5.3), this vulnerability is remotely exploitable, no authentication required, low attack complexity. No vendor patch available.
IBM Aspera Shares 1.9.0 through 1.10.0 PL6 is vulnerable to stored cross-site scripting. Rated medium severity (CVSS 6.4), this vulnerability is remotely exploitable, low attack complexity. No vendor patch available.

IBM Aspera Shares 1.9.0 through 1.10.0 PL6 does not properly rate limit the frequency that an authenticated user can send emails, which could result in email flooding or a denial of service. Rated medium severity (CVSS 4.3), this vulnerability is remotely exploitable, low attack complexity. No vendor patch available.
IBM Aspera Shares 1.0 through 1.10.0 PL3 does not invalidate session after a password reset which could allow an authenticated user to impersonate another user on the system. Rated medium severity (CVSS 6.5), this vulnerability is remotely exploitable, low attack complexity. No vendor patch available.
IBM Aspera Web Application 1.9.14 PL1 is vulnerable to cross-site scripting. Rated medium severity (CVSS 6.1), this vulnerability is remotely exploitable, no authentication required, low attack complexity. This Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability could allow attackers to inject malicious scripts into web pages viewed by other users.
