MITM requires on-path network positioning (AC:H); confidentiality impact is High since all database traffic is readable; integrity Low for potential injection.

DescriptionNVD

IBM Netezza Software 11.3.0.3 through Interim Fix 002 does not validate or improperly validates TLS certificate validation, which could allow an attacker to obtain sensitive information using man in the middle techniques.

AnalysisAI

Improper TLS certificate validation in IBM Netezza Software 11.3.0.3 through Interim Fix 002 (CWE-297) exposes encrypted database communications to interception via man-in-the-middle attacks. A network-adjacent or on-path attacker who can position themselves between Netezza clients and the server can intercept or manipulate traffic because the software fails to properly validate TLS certificates - likely failing to check hostname binding. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation An attacker must achieve network-path positioning between a Netezza client and the Netezza server - this requires either local network access (ARP/DNS spoofing, rogue switch port), a compromised routing device, or a misconfigured cloud network where traffic traverses an attacker-controlled node. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The provided CVSS vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N) contains two notable inconsistencies with the description: the attack complexity AC:L understates the realistic requirement for network positioning to execute MITM, and C:N contradicts the explicit claim that attackers can 'obtain sensitive information.' An independently assessed vector is provided below that corrects these. … 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-released patch as documented in IBM Security Bulletin at https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/node/7284359. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Threat intelligence, references, and detailed analysis are available after sign-in.
