CVE-2025-25021Network attack vector

Privileged code execution via case script generation

Published Jun 3, 2025 · Updated Feb 26, 2026

Code injection in IBM QRadar Suite Software and IBM Cloud Pak for Security allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary code. The case-management script creation path generates executable code improperly, but IBM has not disclosed the affected function or input handling error. High-privilege access is required; successful exploitation compromises confidentiality, integrity, and availability within the platform.
