Local root command execution via excessive container privileges
Published Jun 15, 2025 · Updated Feb 26, 2026
Execution with unnecessary privileges in IBM Security Verify Directory Container 10.0.0.0 through 10.0.3.1 allows local users to run commands as root. IBM has not disclosed the specific container component or privileged execution path that retains unnecessary root privileges. Successful exploitation requires local low-privileged access to an affected container and grants root-level command execution.
