# IBM API Connect V12 OnPrem: unauthenticated server-side request forgery can leak sensitive information (fixed in 12.1.1.3)

Link for people: https://infrastack.ai/live/CVE-2026-17329 (this .md is for agents)

IBM says API Connect V12 OnPrem v12.1.0.0 to v12.1.1.2 does not properly validate endpoint URLs (CWE-918, server-side request forgery). A remote attacker with no login can obtain sensitive information. IBM rates it CVSS 9.3.

_Summary, check and fix written by a model from the sources; labelled as such._

## Affected

- vendor:API Connect V12 OnPrem affected >= 12.1.0.0, <= 12.1.1.2 fixed 12.1.1.3

## How to check

Check your API Connect V12 OnPrem version; v12.1.0.0 through v12.1.1.2 are affected, v12.1.1.3 contains the fix. IBM's bulletin lists only V12 OnPrem; if you run another API Connect offering or version, confirm with IBM support.

## Fix

Upgrade IBM API Connect V12 OnPrem to v12.1.1.3 (Fix Central: https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/node/7290205). IBM lists no workarounds.

## From the sources

IBM API Connect 12.1.0.0 through 12.1.1.2 could allow a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information due to improper validation of endpoint URLs.
