IBM API Connect 10.0.8.0 through 10.0.8.12 and 12.1.0.0 through 12.1.1.2 could allow a remote authenticated attacker to perform arbitrary file reads and server-side request forgery due to unrestricted resolution of external references. Externally referenced content in submitted definitions is not sufficiently restricted when processed, and the retrieved content could be returned to the attacker.
