Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Sep 16, 2026
An authenticated user of IBM DataStage on Cloud Pak for Data 5.4.0.0 can abuse path traversal (CWE-22) in file path handling to write to or delete arbitrary files on the platform's shared storage, compromising data integrity and availability for other jobs and tenants using that storage. The flaw is remotely reachable with a valid low-privileged account (CVSS 8.1, AV:N/PR:L, C:N/I:H/A:H) and a vendor patch is available from IBM; there is no CISA KEV listing and no confirmed public exploit, and EPSS is a modest 0.50% (41st percentile), indicating opportunistic rather than widespread exploitation pressure.

Threat Intelligence Overview
How this decision was reached
The engine reads each signal below and applies a fixed list of rules from top to bottom. The first rule that matches sets the recommended action – like a statement, every line is shown.
