Authenticated cross-user data modification
Published Jan 27, 2025 · Updated Sep 29, 2025
Incorrect authorization in IBM Sterling File Gateway allows remote authenticated users to alter another user's data through myFileGateway 2.0. IBM has not disclosed the affected request, handler, or authorization check that fails to enforce user-level data ownership. Affected versions are 6.0.0.0 through 6.1.2.5 and 6.2.0.0 through 6.2.0.1; exploitation requires a valid account and affects data integrity only.
