DescriptionNVD

IBM Db2 Mirror for i 7.4, 7.5, and 7.6 could allow a local attacker to obtain information due to a race condition involving a predictable Unix domain socket path in a world-writable directory.

AnalysisAI

Local information disclosure in IBM Db2 Mirror for i 7.4, 7.5, and 7.6 stems from a predictable Unix domain socket path placed in a world-writable directory, enabling a TOCTOU race condition (CWE-367). A local, low-privileged attacker can pre-create or replace the socket at the predictable path before the Db2 Mirror service claims it, intercepting communications that flow through that socket and obtaining sensitive information. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires a local OS-level account on the IBM i system running IBM Db2 Mirror for i 7.4, 7.5, or 7.6 with at least *W (write) authority to the world-writable IFS directory containing the socket path. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The provided CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:L) scores 4.4 (Medium). … 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 fix documented in the IBM support advisory at https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/node/7285904; an exact patched version number was not independently confirmed from the input data. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
