CVE-2024-31898Network attack vector

Authenticated data disclosure and modification via object references

Published Jun 30, 2024 · Updated Aug 2, 2024

Authorization bypass in IBM InfoSphere Information Server 11.7 allows remote authenticated users to read or modify sensitive data. Requests can supply direct object references that the server accepts without confirming that the requesting account is authorized for the referenced information. A low-privileged account and network access to the affected interface are required; IBM has not identified the endpoint or object key involved.
