Impact
A locally authenticated user can execute malicious scripts from outside the system’s control sphere, effectively allowing arbitrary code execution. This vulnerability, categorized under CWE-829, could compromise confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the affected IBM Verify and Security Verify environments.
Affected Systems
IBM Verify Identity Access 11.0 through 11.0.2 and IBM Security Verify Access 10.0 through 10.0.9.1, along with their corresponding containerized editions (IBM Verify Identity Access Container 11.0–11.0.2 and IBM Security Verify Access Container 10.0–10.0.9.1).
Risk and Exploitability
The CVSS score of 8.5 indicates high severity, however the EPSS score of less than 1% suggests that exploitation is currently unlikely. The vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. Attackers would need local authentication against the affected services and could exploit the flaw to run arbitrary scripts from an external source, potentially leading to full system compromise.
