Issue/Introduction

Potential Impact of CVE-2023-44487 on TIBCO ActiveMatrix Service Grid 3.4.1 / TIBCO BPM Enterprise 4.3.2.

Environment

All Supported Environments.

Resolution

Upon investigation, the Engineering team has confirmed that TIBCO ActiveMatrix Service Grid 3.4.1 / TIBCO BPM Enterprise 4.3.2, by default, utilizes HTTP protocol version 1 and does not integrate HTTP protocol version 2. Therefore, the vulnerability CVE-2023-44487 does not directly impact the system.

However, it's essential to note that if customers have implemented custom Java code within AMX/BPM utilizing HTTP protocol version 2, in that case, appropriate adjustments are necessary. Customers would need to modify their code to adopt an alternative approach OR utilize the HTTP Client/HTTP Server RT from AMX/BPM.
