DescriptionCVE.org

IBM DataStage on Cloud Pak for Data 5.4.0.0 could allow a remote authenticated attacker to create arbitrary files due to path traversal during archive extraction.

AnalysisAI

Arbitrary file creation in IBM DataStage on Cloud Pak for Data 5.4.0.0 allows a remote authenticated attacker to write files to unintended locations by supplying a crafted archive whose entries escape the intended extraction directory. The path-traversal flaw (CWE-22) occurs during archive extraction and carries a CVSS 9.1 rating driven by a scope change and high integrity impact. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires an authenticated, low-privileged account on IBM DataStage on Cloud Pak for Data 5.4.0.0 (PR:L) and the ability to submit an archive that the application will extract - the vulnerable code path is specifically the archive-extraction routine, so the attacker must be able to reach a feature that ingests and unpacks a user-supplied archive. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:H/A:L) indicates a network-reachable, low-complexity attack requiring only low privileges and no user interaction, with the scope change and I:H pushing the base score to 9.1. … 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-provided fix referenced in IBM's advisory at https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/node/7286562 (Patch available per vendor advisory); consult that page for the exact fix pack / interim fix applicable to DataStage on Cloud Pak for Data 5.4.0.0, as an explicit fixed version string was not included in the input data. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours, inventory all systems running IBM DataStage on Cloud Pak for Data 5.4.0.0 and restrict DataStage archive upload functionality to trusted administrators only. …
