DescriptionCVE.org

IBM Financial Transaction Manager (FTM) for RedHat OpenShift could allow a remote authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code due to improper validation of a specified quantity.

AnalysisAI

Remote code execution in IBM FTM for Red Hat OpenShift is possible when an authenticated attacker submits a manipulated quantity value to a vulnerable feature, causing an out-of-bounds write (CWE-787) that can lead to arbitrary code execution. The CVSS 3.1 base score of 8.8 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H) reflects a network-reachable, low-complexity flaw requiring low privileges and no user interaction, with full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires a valid authenticated FTM account (PR:L) with network access to the IBM Financial Transaction Manager for RedHat OpenShift instance; the attacker then submits input to the affected feature with a manipulated 'specified quantity' (length/count) value that bypasses proper validation to trigger the out-of-bounds write. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 3.1 base score of 8.8 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H) reflects a network-reachable, low-complexity flaw that a low-privileged authenticated attacker can leverage for full confidentiality, integrity, and availability loss via arbitrary code execution. … 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 Apply the vendor patch referenced in IBM support node 7288641 as the primary remediation; the provided data confirms patch availability but does not include an exact fixed version, so verify the appropriate release or fix pack from the advisory. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours, inventory all IBM FTM for Red Hat OpenShift instances and confirm exposure to CVE-2026-17636; restrict network access to the vulnerable feature and enforce least privilege for accounts that can submit quantity values. …
