healthcenter - IBM Monitoring and Diagnostic Tools health Center agent healthcenter downloads binary resources over HTTP, which leaves it vulnerable to MITM attacks. It may be possible to cause remote code execution (RCE) by swapping out the requested resources with an attacker controlled copy if the attacker is on the network or positioned in between the user and the remote server.
healthcenter - IBM Monitoring and Diagnostic Tools health Center agent healthcenter downloads binary resources over HTTP, which leaves it vulnerable to MITM attacks. It may be possible to cause remote code execution (RCE) by swapping out the requested resources with an attacker controlled copy if the attacker is on the network or positioned in between the user and the remote server.
Affected versions of `healthcenter` insecurely download an executable over an unencrypted HTTP connection. In scenarios where an attacker has a privileged network position, it is possible to intercept the response and replace the executable with a malicious one, resulting in code execution on the system running `healthcenter`. ## Recommendation This package has been deprecated, and moved to a new package on npm: [`appmetrics`](https://npmjs.com/package/appmetrics). In order to mitigate this vulnerability, please install the `appmetrics` package in place of `healthcenter` via the following commands: ``` npm uninstall healthcenter -s npm install appmetrics -s ```

healthcenter - IBM Monitoring and Diagnostic Tools. El agente de centro de salud healthcenter descarga recursos binarios por HTTP, lo que lo deja vulnerable a ataques MITM. Podría ser posible provocar la ejecución remota de código (RCE) cambiando los recursos solicitados por otros controlados por el atacante si éste están en la red o posicionado entre el usuario y el servidor remoto.
