Local code execution via OS command injection
Published Sep 14, 2026 · Updated Sep 14, 2026
OS command injection in IBM App Connect Enterprise Toolkit affected releases allows local users to execute arbitrary code via crafted local input. IBM has not disclosed which Toolkit function accepts the input or how it constructs the operating-system command without adequate neutralization. Exploitation requires local access and user interaction and runs code with the Toolkit user's privileges in 12.0.1.0 through 12.0.12.27 and 13.0.1.0 through 13.0.8.0.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
- Affected versionversion=12.0.1.0 <=12.0.12.27
- Affected versionversion=13.0.1.0 <=13.0.8.0
