CVE-2022-43573Network attack vector

Authenticated creator identity disclosure via object access

Published Jan 5, 2023 · Updated Apr 9, 2025

Information disclosure in IBM Robotic Process Automation 20.12 through 21.0.6 allows remote authenticated users to obtain creator identities. Accessing specific platform-level objects returns the name and email address of the user who created or modified them; IBM has not disclosed the faulty authorization or filtering operation. A valid low-privilege account and a network path to the platform are required, and the disclosed data is limited to names and email addresses.
