IBM threat watch

IBM WebSphere Application Server and IBM WebSphere Application Server Liberty are vulnerable to denial of service in the WebSphere WebServer Plug-in component when an attacker can pass crafted requests to the web server.

IBM WebSphere Application Server and IBM WebSphere Application Server Liberty - when using Intelligent Management with the WebSphere WebServer Plug-in component - are vulnerable to remote code execution and denial of service. This vulnerability can be exploited when an attacker impersonates backend servers and sends crafted responses to the plug-in.

IBM WebSphere Application Server 9.0, and 8.5 is vulnerable to server-side request forgery (SSRF) with the Ajax Proxy configured. This may allow an attacker to send unauthorized requests from the system, resulting in a security bypass or information disclosure.

IBM WebSphere Application Server and IBM WebSphere Application Server Liberty are vulnerable to remote code execution and denial of service in the WebSphere Web Server Plug-in component. This vulnerability can be exploited when an attacker impersonates the application server and sends crafted responses to the plug-in.

IBM WebSphere Application Server 9.0 and 8.5 and IBM WebSphere Application Server - Liberty 17.0.0.3 through 26.0.0.6 are vulnerable to HTTP request smuggling. A remote attacker could smuggle a specially crafted request to the application server thereby allowing the attacker to bypass security controls, spoof identity, escalate privilege, and expose sensitive information.

IBM Datacap 9.1.7, 9.1.8, and 9.1.9 and IBM Datacap Navigator 9.1.7, 9.1.8, and 9.1.9 allows an attacker to retrieve user passwords and cryptographic keys from memory. Attacker can use the same keys to decrypt password, gain access to the application and access sensitive data in the database.

IBM Watson Speech Services Cartridge is vulnerable to Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) in Sterling File Gateway, due to a flaw which may allow an authenticated attacker to send unauthorized requests from the system, potentially leading to network enumeration or facilitating other attacks [GHSA-rr7j-v2q5-chgv] [CVE-2026-7253]. IBM Sterling File Gateway is used in our speech runtimes. This vulnerabilitiy has been addressed. Please read the details for remediation below.

IBM i 7.6, 7.5, 7.4, and 7.3 could allow a user to gain elevated privileges due to an unqualified library call. A malicious actor could cause user-controlled code to run with administrator privilege.

IBM WebSphere Application Server 9.0, and 8.5 is affected by an improper validation of user-supplied data during deserialization using the SAML Web Single Sign-On component. This could result in remote code execution via a crafted HTTP request when combined with a suitable gadget chain.

IBM WebSphere Application Server 9.0, and 8.5 is vulnerable to potential remote code execution due to deserialization of untrusted data via JAX-WS endpoints with WS-Security.

IBM WebSphere Application Server 9.0, and 8.5 is vulnerable to remote code execution caused by the bypass of security controls.

IBM WebSphere Application Server 9.0, and 8.5 is vulnerable to identity spoofing.

IBM Aspera High-Speed Transfer Endpoint 3.7.4 through 4.4.7 Fix Pack 1 and IBM Aspera High-Speed Transfer Server 3.7.4 through 4.4.7 Fix Pack 1 and IBM Aspera High-Speed Transfer Endpoint are affected by a potential denial of service in the asperahttpd component. An unauthenticated user can cause the asperahttpd service to crash.

IBM Aspera High-Speed Transfer Endpoint 3.7.4 through 4.4.7 Fix Pack 1 and IBM Aspera High-Speed Transfer Server 3.7.4 through 4.4.7 Fix Pack 1 and IBM Aspera High-Speed Transfer Endpoint are affected by a buffer overflow in the asperahttpd component. This vulnerability could allow an authenticated user to execute arbitrary code on the system.

IBM Aspera High-Speed Transfer Endpoint 3.7.4 through 4.4.7 Fix Pack 1 and IBM Aspera High-Speed Transfer Server 3.7.4 through 4.4.7 Fix Pack 1 and IBM Aspera High-Speed Transfer Endpoint are affected by a buffer overflow in the asperahttpd component. This vulnerability could be exploited to cause a denial of service and potentially lead to authentication bypass or remote code execution.

IBM Aspera HSTS for CP4I 1.5.1 through 1.5.19 is affected by an authentication bypass vulnerability. A transfer client may be able to take advantage of this vulnerability to access files in the server's local storage that they should not have access to, when specific restriction settings are not in place.

IBM Operations Analytics - Log Analysis  and IBM SmartCloud Analytics - Log Analysis uses default passwords default passwords from the manufacturing process for use during the installation process, which could allow an attacker to bypass authentication.

IBM Db2 12.1.0 through 12.1.4 is vulnerable to authorization bypass when uploading to a remote object storage path with a special query.

IBM Db2 11.5.0 through 11.5.9, and 12.1.0 through 12.1.4 is vulnerable to running out of memory when executing certain queries with MDC tables.

IBM Db2 11.5.0 through 11.5.9, and 12.1.0 through 12.1.4 is vulnerable to a denial of service when executing a specially crafted query with a small statement heap.
