IBM DataStage on Cloud Pak for Data 5.4.0.0 could allow a remote authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code due to unsafe deserialization of untrusted data.
AnalysisAI
Authenticated remote code execution in IBM DataStage on Cloud Pak for Data 5.4.0.0 lets a low-privileged user with network access to the service reach an unsafe deserialization sink and execute arbitrary code in the context of the affected component. The issue is CWE-502 (deserialization of untrusted data) rated CVSS 3.1 8.8 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H), so a successful attack yields high confidentiality, integrity and availability impact with no user interaction required. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Requires a valid authenticated account on IBM DataStage on Cloud Pak for Data version 5.4.0.0 (CVSS PR:L) with network access to the component that deserializes untrusted input; no user interaction is needed (UI:N) and no non-default configuration is documented as a prerequisite. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | This is a genuinely high-priority vulnerability on paper: CVSS 3.1 8.8 with AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N and full C:H/I:H/A:H reflecting CWE-502 unsafe deserialization leading to arbitrary code execution. … 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 its fix guidance at https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/node/7288649, and because the data provided does not include an exact patched build number, administrators should retrieve the precise fixed release for DataStage on Cloud Pak for Data 5.4.0.0 from that bulletin and apply it according to IBM's upgrade instructions. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
