IBM Cognos Analytics 11.2.0 through 11.2.4 and 12.0.0 through 12.0.3 could allow a remote attacker to conduct phishing attacks, using an open redirect attack. By persuading a victim to visit a specially crafted Web site, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to spoof the URL displayed to redirect a user to a malicious Web site that would appear to be trusted.
The web application accepts a user-controlled input that specifies a link to an external site, and uses that link in a redirect.
