Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions IBM Engineering Lifecycle Optimization Publishing versions 7.0.2 through 7.0.3

Description The issue is caused by the improper validation of file extensions, allowing a remote attacker to upload arbitrary files. By sending a specially crafted request, a remote attacker could exploit this to upload a malicious file, which could allow the attacker to execute arbitrary code on the vulnerable system.

As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to file upload functionality until a patch is available.
