Description
IBM Power Systems Firmware FW1120.00, FW1110.00 through FW1110.30, FW1060.00 through FW1060.80, and FW950.00 through FW950.H2 is affected by a vulnerability in the ASMI web interface. An attacker who can lure a logged-in ASMI administrator to visit a crafted web page can, under specific conditions, silently perform administrative actions on the FSP on behalf of that administrator, resulting in a confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact to the managed system.

AI Analysis

Impact

IBM Power Systems Firmware contains a Cross‑Site Request Forgery (CSRF) flaw in the ASMI web interface. A logged‑in ASMI administrator can be tricked by an attacker to visit a maliciously crafted web page, which silently triggers administrative actions on the Fabric Service Processor (FSP). Because these actions are performed under the administrator’s privileges, the flaw can compromise confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the managed system.

Affected Systems

Systems affected are IBM Power Systems running firmware versions FW1120.00 to FW1120.00, FW1110.00 through FW1110.30, FW1060.00 through FW1060.80, and FW950.00 through FW950.H2. The vulnerable firmware covers Power 9, 10, and 11 generations, including models such as the Power 11 E1180, Power 10 E1080, and multiple Power 9 models (S922, H922, S914, S924, H924, E950, E980).

Risk and Exploitability

With a CVSS score of 8.3 the vulnerability is considered high severity, reflecting the potential for an attacker to gain elevated administrative authority. EPSS data is unavailable, so the current exploitation probability cannot be quantified, and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. Attackers would need to social‑engineer a legitimate administrator to visit a malicious page; once the admin session is compromised, the CSRF payload executes without user interaction, making prevention largely reliant on keeping firmware up to date.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Install firmware update FW1120.01(1120_167) or newer on Power 11 systems
  • Install firmware update FW1060.81(1060_184) or newer on Power 10 systems
  • Install firmware update FW950.H3(950_230) or newer on Power 9 systems
  • Restrict use of the ASMI web interface to trusted administrators and disable remote access when it is not required.
