Impact

The CVSS vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N) reflects a network-accessible vulnerability with low attack complexity that requires no prior privileges but does require user interaction (such as clicking a malicious link). The 6.5 base score indicates medium severity with high integrity impact but no confidentiality or availability loss. While EPSS data is not provided, the real-world risk is moderate because successful exploitation depends on social engineering to trick an administrator or user into clicking a crafted link while authenticated to DataPower Gateway. The attack vector is network-based and the exploitation bar is low, but the requirement for user interaction significantly reduces the likelihood of automated or mass exploitation. Organizations running these versions in environments where administrators follow security hygiene (e.g., not clicking suspicious links) face lower immediate risk, but those with less mature security practices face elevated risk.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker crafts a malicious web page or email containing an embedded request (e.g., an image tag with a modified DataPower Gateway configuration URL) and sends it to an authenticated DataPower Gateway administrator. When the administrator visits the malicious page while logged into DataPower Gateway in another browser tab, the forged request executes in the administrator's session without additional confirmation, allowing the attacker to modify gateway policies, disable security controls, or redirect traffic. No public exploit code is confirmed at this time, but the straightforward nature of CSRF attacks means exploitation requires minimal technical skill once a valid forged request is crafted.

AnalysisAIv1 – Apr 01, 2026

IBM DataPower Gateway versions 10.5.0.0-10.5.0.20, 10.6.0.0-10.6.0.8, and 10.6.1.0-10.6.5.0 are vulnerable to cross-site request forgery (CSRF) that allows unauthenticated remote attackers to execute unauthorized actions on behalf of trusted users with user interaction. The vulnerability carries a CVSS score of 6.5 with medium real-world risk due to the requirement for user interaction and the integrity-only impact.

RemediationAI

Vendor-released patch available per IBM security advisory. Organizations should upgrade to patched versions of IBM DataPower Gateway 10.5.0 (beyond 10.5.0.20), 10.6.0 (beyond 10.6.0.8), or 10.6CD (beyond 10.6.5.0) as directed by IBM's advisory at https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/node/7268034. As an interim control, restrict administrative access to DataPower Gateway to trusted networks or require multi-factor authentication to reduce the risk that compromised credentials or social engineering can lead to unauthorized actions. Additionally, educate administrators to avoid clicking links from untrusted sources while authenticated to the gateway.

Technical ContextAI · show details

The vulnerability is rooted in CWE-352 (Cross-Site Request Forgery), a web security flaw where an attacker crafts a malicious request and tricks a legitimate user into executing it against a trusted application. In DataPower Gateway, the absence of or improper validation of anti-CSRF tokens (such as synchronizer tokens or SameSite cookie attributes) enables an attacker to forge requests that modify gateway configuration, policies, or other administrative functions. The affected products (CPE: cpe:2.3:a:ibm:datapower_gateway_10.5.0:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*, cpe:2.3:a:ibm:datapower_gateway_10.6.0:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*, cpe:2.3:a:ibm:datapower_gateway_10.6cd:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*) are enterprise API management and integration platforms where CSRF protection is critical because they often manage sensitive security policies and integrations.
