IBM Security Verify Access 10.0 through 10.0.9.2 and IBM Verify Identity Access 11.0 through 11.0.3 could allow a remote attacker to bypass authentication due to improper authentication.
AnalysisAI
Authentication bypass in IBM Security Verify Access 10.0 through 10.0.9.2 and IBM Verify Identity Access 11.0 through 11.0.3 allows a remote, unauthenticated attacker (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N) to reach protected functionality without valid credentials, with high confidentiality and integrity impact and no availability impact. The flaw is rated 9.1 and stems from improper authentication (CWE-287) in the access-control path of the affected appliances and container editions; no public exploit identified at time of analysis and the vendor has released a fix. …

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | The attacker needs network reachability to the IBM Security Verify Access / Verify Identity Access authentication interface and no credentials (CVSS PR:N, UI:N), so exploitation works against default-exposed deployments without user interaction. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | This is a genuine high-priority vulnerability, not an inflated CVSS score. … 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 has published a security bulletin for this authentication bypass at https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/node/7291628, which lists the fixed levels for the 10.0.x and 11.0.x Security Verify Access and Verify Identity Access lines and their container images - apply the vendor-supplied upgrade for your release train rather than an independently chosen version, and redeploy container images from the corrected tag. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours, inventory all instances of IBM Security Verify Access 10.0 through 10.0.9.2 and IBM Verify Identity Access 11.0 through 11.0.3 across appliance and container editions, identify which of those authentication interfaces are reachable from untrusted networks, and restrict or filter that exposure at the network perimeter as an immediate stopgap; confirm that administrative and diagnostic endpoints are not incidentally exposed. …
