Impact
An out‑of‑bounds write flaw allows a remote attacker to corrupt memory on the DataPower Gateway appliance. The vulnerability can lead to arbitrary code execution or system crash, compromising confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the device and potentially the services it manages.
Affected Systems
IBM DataPower Gateway versions 10.5.0.0 to 10.5.0.22, 10.6.0.0 to 10.6.0.10, 10.6.1 to 10.6.6, and 11.0.0.0 to 11.0.0.2 are affected. Fixed releases include IBM DataPower Gateway 10.6CD 10.6.1–10.6.6.1.0.3, 10.6.0 10.6.0.0–10.6.0.1010.6.0.11, 10.5.0 10.5.0.0–10.5.0.2210.5.0.23, and 11.0.0 11.0.0.0–11.0.0.211.0.0.3.
Risk and Exploitability
The CVSS score of 8.6 indicates high severity. The EPSS score is not available, and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. The likely attack vector is remote network access to the appliance. If exploited, the attacker could gain code execution privileges on the device. Given its high impact and the remote nature, the risk is considered high, warranting prompt remediation.
