Ibm · Ibm Sdk · CVE-2019-4732
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
IBM SDK, Java Technology Edition versions 7.0.0.0 through 7.0.10.55
IBM SDK, Java Technology Edition versions 7.1.0.0 through 7.1.4.55

**Description**
The issue is related to a DLL search order hijacking vulnerability in Microsoft Windows client. This could allow a local authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system by placing a specially-crafted file in a compromised folder.
**Recommendations**
For versions 7.0.0.0 through 7.0.10.55, update to a version outside of this range to mitigate the risk.
For versions 7.1.0.0 through 7.1.4.55, update to a version outside of this range to mitigate the risk.
For versions 8.0.0.0 through 8.0.6.0, update to a version outside of this range to mitigate the risk.
As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to compromised folders to minimize the risk of exploitation.
