What is the CVSS score of EUVD-2025-16758?

EUVD-2025-16758 has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 9.6 (Critical). CVSS vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:A/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H. EPSS exploitation probability: 0.1%.

How to fix or mitigate EUVD-2025-16758?

Within 24 hours: Inventory all QRadar Suite (1.10.12.0-1.11.2.0) and Cloud Pak for Security (1.10.0.0-1.10.11.0) instances and restrict network access to these systems to authorized users only. Within 7 days: Implement Web Application Firewall (WAF) rules to block requests attempting to access configuration file endpoints, rotate all credentials stored in QRadar configurations, and enable comprehensive logging of access attempts. Within 30 days: Contact IBM for patched versions or upgrade roadmap; consider temporary isolation of affected systems if running in production; conduct forensic review of access logs for evidence of prior exploitation.

DescriptionCVE.org

IBM QRadar Suite Software 1.10.12.0 through 1.11.2.0 and IBM Cloud Pak for Security 1.10.0.0 through 1.10.11.0 could allow an unauthenticated user in the environment to obtain highly sensitive information in configuration files.

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

IBM QRadar Suite and Cloud Pak for Security deployments are vulnerable to unauthorized disclosure of sensitive configuration data by unauthenticated users, potentially exposing credentials, API keys, and system architecture details. This affects organizations running affected versions and requires immediate action to prevent credential compromise and lateral movement.

Business Impact: Severe

Compensating Controls

Implement network segmentation to restrict access to QRadar systems to authorized administrative networks only; deploy WAF rules to block unauthenticated requests to configuration file endpoints (/config, /settings, /backup paths); disable remote access features if not operationally required; implement robust ingress filtering and IP whitelisting; enable and monitor authentication logs for unauthorized access attempts; consider air-gapping affected systems until patches are available; rotate all embedded credentials (database passwords, API keys, service accounts) immediately.
