CVE-2024-31892Network attack vector

Unauthorized actions via modified CSV formula elements

Published Dec 14, 2024 · Updated Dec 16, 2024

SQL injection in IBM Storage Scale GUI 5.1.9.0 through 5.1.9.6 and 5.2.0.0 through 5.2.1.1 allows attackers to perform unauthorized actions. The GUI improperly neutralizes formula elements in an intercepted and modified CSV file, but IBM has not identified the responsible function or SQL operation. Exploitation is remote and unauthenticated but requires interception and modification of the CSV file plus user interaction; the resulting actions can affect confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
