DescriptionCVE.org

IBM App Connect Enterprise 13.0.1.0 through 13.0.8.0, and 12.0.1.0 through 12.0.12.27 could allow a local attacker to execute arbitrary code due to insecure deserialization.

AnalysisAI

Insecure deserialization in IBM App Connect Enterprise releases 13.0.1.0 through 13.0.8.0 and 12.0.1.0 through 12.0.12.27 lets a local attacker run arbitrary code on the host running the integration node or toolkit. The flaw rates CVSS 7.8 (AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R) with total loss of confidentiality, integrity and availability, but CISA's SSVC assessment records no known exploitation and low automatability, and no public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Two concrete prerequisites must both hold: first, the attacker needs a local presence on the host running IBM App Connect Enterprise - a local account, shell, or the ability to write files into a directory that an integration node, integration server, or the Toolkit reads; second, the crafted serialized object must actually be deserialized, which the CVSS UI:R metric indicates requires a user or automated action such as importing, loading, or restarting with a manipulated artifact. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The signals do not point in the same direction, and defenders should read them carefully. … 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 - IBM published remediation for this CVE at https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/node/7286530, which should be consulted for the exact fixed build in the 12.0.12.x and 13.0.8.x lines (the supplied data confirms a patch exists but does not enumerate the precise version, so the upgrade target must be read from the advisory rather than inferred). … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Threat intelligence, references, and detailed analysis are available after sign-in.
