DescriptionNVD

IBM Robotic Process Automation 21.0.0, 21.0.1, and 21.0.2 is vulnerable to insufficiently protected credentials for users created via a bulk upload. IBM X-Force ID: 228888.

AnalysisAI

IBM Robotic Process Automation 21.0.0, 21.0.1, and 21.0.2 is vulnerable to insufficiently protected credentials for users created via a bulk upload. Rated medium severity (CVSS 6.5), this vulnerability is remotely exploitable, low attack complexity. No vendor patch available.

Technical ContextAI

This vulnerability is classified as Insufficiently Protected Credentials (CWE-522), which allows attackers to obtain user credentials due to weak protection mechanisms. IBM Robotic Process Automation 21.0.0, 21.0.1, and 21.0.2 is vulnerable to insufficiently protected credentials for users created via a bulk upload. IBM X-Force ID: 228888. Affected products include: Ibm Robotic Process Automation.

RemediationAI

No vendor patch is available at time of analysis. Monitor vendor advisories for updates. Hash passwords with strong algorithms (bcrypt, argon2), encrypt credentials in transit and at rest, never log credentials.
