CVE-2024-55895Network attack vector

Sensitive information disclosure via detailed browser errors

Published Mar 29, 2025 · Updated Sep 1, 2025

Information disclosure in IBM InfoSphere Information Server 11.7 allows remote authenticated users to obtain sensitive data via browser errors. The browser error-handling path returns detailed technical messages containing sensitive system information instead of suppressing those details. High-privilege access is required, and the disclosed details support further attacks rather than direct data modification or service interruption.
