DescriptionNVD

IBM Db2 Mirror for i 7.4, 7.5, and 7.6 could allow a remote attacker to write arbitrary files due to improper limitation of a pathname to a restricted directory.

AnalysisAI

Arbitrary file write via path traversal in IBM Db2 Mirror for i versions 7.4, 7.5, and 7.6 exposes systems to unauthenticated remote exploitation. The flaw stems from improper pathname restriction (CWE-22), enabling an attacker to escape the intended directory sandbox and write files to arbitrary filesystem locations. …
