2DescriptionCVE.org
IBM i 7.6, 7.5, 7.4, and 7.3 could allow a remote authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary commands and obtain sensitive information due to improper privilege management.
AnalysisAI
Remote authenticated attackers can execute arbitrary commands on IBM i 7.3 through 7.6 by exploiting improper privilege management (CWE-250), achieving full confidentiality, integrity, and availability compromise on affected systems. The CVSS vector of AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N confirms that only a low-privileged account and network reachability are required - no complex preconditions or user interaction needed. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires a valid IBM i user account with at least low-level authentication (confirmed by CVSS PR:L) and network reachability to the IBM i system. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | With a CVSS base score of 8.8 and a vector of AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H, this vulnerability presents high real-world risk to any organization running IBM i 7.3 through 7.6 - attack complexity is low and only a minimal authenticated foothold is required over the network, making it accessible to a broad population of threat actors who possess or can obtain any valid low-privileged credential. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in. |
| Remediation | Patch available per vendor advisory: apply the fix documented by IBM at https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/node/7283289, which should be consulted for the specific PTF numbers appropriate to your IBM i release level. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours, conduct an asset inventory to identify all IBM i 7.3 through 7.6 systems in production and assess their criticality, data sensitivity, and user access patterns. …
