DescriptionCVE.org

IBM Netezza Software 11.3.0.3 through Interim Fix 002 has credentials that are hardcoded in the application source code, allowing unauthorized access to the container registry. The exposed secret enables attackers to pull private container images, potentially revealing proprietary code, configuration details, and other sensitive information.

AnalysisAI

Hardcoded container registry credentials in IBM Netezza Software 11.3.0.3 through Interim Fix 002 expose a secret directly in application source code, allowing unauthenticated remote access to IBM's private container registry. An attacker who obtains the credential - likely by inspecting distributed software artifacts or container image layers - can pull private images, potentially revealing proprietary application code, embedded configuration values, and additional secrets. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires first obtaining the hardcoded credential, which is embedded in IBM Netezza Software 11.3.0.3 through Interim Fix 002 - most likely recoverable from distributed installation packages, customer-deployed container image layers, or source code artifacts. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 7.5 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N) accurately conveys that once the hardcoded credential is extracted from a software artifact, exploitation is straightforward - no Netezza authentication is required and the registry is reachable over the network. … 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 IBM's released patch as detailed in advisory https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/node/7284359; the exact fixed interim fix level should be confirmed from that page, as the input data does not specify a precise remediated version number. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours, identify all systems running IBM Netezza 11.3.0.3 through IF 002 and review container registry access logs for unexpected image pulls or authentication activity during the exposure window. …
