AnalysisAIv1 – Sep 15, 2026

A buffer overflow in a PASE (Portable Application Solutions Environment) process on IBM i 7.3, 7.4, 7.5, and 7.6 allows an authenticated local user to crash the affected process. Per IBM's own description, the impact is limited: the attacker can terminate their own process rather than disrupt other users or system-wide services, which is reflected in the low CVSS 3.3 and Availability-only impact. There is no public exploit code and no CISA KEV listing at time of analysis, and the flaw is classified as CWE-125 (out-of-bounds read).

What every action level means
Emergency Immediate action required. Criteria: CRITICAL + in CISA KEV (actively exploited) without patch, OR CRITICAL + EPSS > 30% without patch, OR CRITICAL + active threat signals without patch.
Act Now Prioritize within 24-48h. Criteria: in KEV with patch available, OR CRITICAL + public POC, OR HIGH + EPSS > 10%, OR CRITICAL + active threat, OR any CRITICAL severity.
This Week Schedule remediation this week. Criteria: HIGH severity (CVSS 7.0-8.9). Patch within normal change window.
This Month Plan within 30 days. Criteria: MEDIUM severity (CVSS 4.0-6.9), lower exploitation probability. Include in regular patch cycle.
Monitor Track and reassess. Criteria: LOW severity (CVSS 0.1-3.9), minimal exploitation risk. No immediate action needed.

Attack Technique

A buffer overflow occurs when a program writes more data to a memory buffer than it was allocated to hold, causing the excess data to spill into adjacent memory regions.

Information disclosure occurs when an application unintentionally exposes sensitive data that aids attackers in reconnaissance or directly compromises security.

Denial of Service attacks render applications or systems unavailable by overwhelming resources or triggering failure conditions.
