Authenticated denial of service via special characters
Published Sep 10, 2025 · Updated Sep 10, 2025
Resource exhaustion in IBM Security Verify Information Queue 10.0.5 through 10.0.8 allows remote authenticated users to interrupt service. The product improperly handles unspecified special characters without bounding resource consumption; IBM has not disclosed the affected parser, field, or request path. Exploitation requires low-privileged network access and consumes enough resources to deny availability, with no reported confidentiality or integrity impact.
