Security Bulletin: IBM MQ Operator and Queue manager container images are vulnerable to libxml2, Go JOSE and FreeType

Vulnerability Details

CVEID:   CVE-2025-27365
DESCRIPTION:   An IBM WebSphere MQ Client connecting to a MQ Queue Manager can cause a SIGSEGV in the AMQRMPPA channel process terminating it.
CWE:   CWE-416: Use After Free
CVSS Source:   IBM
CVSS Base score:   6.5
CVSS Vector:   (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H)

CVEID:   CVE-2024-56171
DESCRIPTION:   libxml2 before 2.12.10 and 2.13.x before 2.13.6 has a use-after-free in xmlSchemaIDCFillNodeTables and xmlSchemaBubbleIDCNodeTables in xmlschemas.c. To exploit this, a crafted XML document must be validated against an XML schema with certain identity constraints, or a crafted XML schema must be used.

CVEID:   CVE-2025-1333
DESCRIPTION:   IBM MQ Container when used with the MQ Operator and configured with Cloud Pak for Integration Keycloak could disclose sensitive information to a privileged user.
CWE:   CWE-214: Invocation of Process Using Visible Sensitive Information

CVEID:   CVE-2025-27144
DESCRIPTION:   Go JOSE provides an implementation of the Javascript Object Signing and Encryption set of standards in Go, including support for JSON Web Encryption (JWE), JSON Web Signature (JWS), and JSON Web Token (JWT) standards. In versions on the 4.x branch prior to version 4.0.5, when parsing compact JWS or JWE input, Go JOSE could use excessive memory. The code used strings.Split(token, ".") to split JWT tokens, which is vulnerable to excessive memory consumption when processing maliciously crafted tokens with a large number of `.` characters. An attacker could exploit this by sending numerous malformed tokens, leading to memory exhaustion and a Denial of Service. Version 4.0.5 fixes this issue. As a workaround, applications could pre-validate that payloads passed to Go JOSE do not contain an excessive number of `.` characters.
CWE:   CWE-770: Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling

CVSS Base score:   6.6

CVEID:   CVE-2019-11777
DESCRIPTION:   Eclipse Paho Java client could allow a remote attacker to bypass security restrictions, caused by the failure to check the result when connecting to an MQTT server using TLS and setting a host name verifier. By sending a specially-crafted request, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to allow one MQTT server to impersonate another and provide the client library with incorrect information.
CWE:   CWE-346: Origin Validation Error

CVEID:   CVE-2024-57965
DESCRIPTION:   In axios before 1.7.8, lib/helpers/isURLSameOrigin.js does not use a URL object when determining an origin, and has a potentially unwanted setAttribute('href',href) call. NOTE: some parties feel that the code change only addresses a warning message from a SAST tool and does not fix a vulnerability.
CWE:   CWE-346: Origin Validation Error

CVSS Base score:   0
CVSS Vector:   (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:N/I:N/A:N)

CVEID:   CVE-2025-27152
DESCRIPTION:   axios is a promise based HTTP client for the browser and node.js. The issue occurs when passing absolute URLs rather than protocol-relative URLs to axios. Even if ⁠baseURL is set, axios sends the request to the specified absolute URL, potentially causing SSRF and credential leakage. This issue impacts both server-side and client-side usage of axios. This issue is fixed in 1.8.2.
CWE:   CWE-918: Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF)
CVSS Source:   IBM

CVEID:   CVE-2025-24928
DESCRIPTION:   libxml2 before 2.12.10 and 2.13.x before 2.13.6 has a stack-based buffer overflow in xmlSnprintfElements in valid.c. To exploit this, DTD validation must occur for an untrusted document or untrusted DTD. NOTE: this is similar to CVE-2017-9047.
CWE:   CWE-121: Stack-based Buffer Overflow
CVSS Source:   cve@mitre.org
CVSS Base score:   7.8

CVEID:   CVE-2025-27363
DESCRIPTION:   An out of bounds write exists in FreeType versions 2.13.0 and below (newer versions of FreeType are not vulnerable) when attempting to parse font subglyph structures related to TrueType GX and variable font files. The vulnerable code assigns a signed short value to an unsigned long and then adds a static value causing it to wrap around and allocate too small of a heap buffer. The code then writes up to 6 signed long integers out of bounds relative to this buffer. This may result in arbitrary code execution. This vulnerability may have been exploited in the wild.
