Authenticated questionnaire response spoofing
Published Feb 20, 2025 · Updated Aug 15, 2025
Data manipulation in IBM OpenPages 8.3 and 9.0 allows remote authenticated users to spoof other users' questionnaire responses. IBM identifies the Questionnaires application as the affected locus but has not published the request, field, or validation error that permits one user's data to be attributed to another. Network access and a valid low-privileged account are required; the documented consequence is integrity loss in questionnaire responses, with no reported disclosure or service interruption.
