CVE-2026-78388Network attack vectorHinoki check available

Unauthorized actions under a trusted user's identity

Published Oct 8, 2026 · Updated Oct 8, 2026

CSRF in IBM Verify Identity Access 11.0 through 11.0.3 allows remote attackers to trigger unauthorized actions via a trusted user. IBM also identifies Security Verify Access 10.0 through 10.0.9.2 and both container editions as affected, but does not disclose the endpoint or faulty request-validation operation. Exploitation requires user interaction and causes unauthorized changes under the trusted user's identity; the published assessment identifies no confidentiality or service-interruption impact.
