Network interception required for exploitation justifies AC:H; no IAS authentication needed (PR:N); only confidentiality is impacted, matching the decryption-only nature.

DescriptionCVE.org

IBM Integrated Analytics System 1.0.0.0 through 1.0.31.0 uses weaker than expected cryptographic algorithms that could allow an attacker to decrypt highly sensitive information.

AnalysisAI

IBM Integrated Analytics System versions 1.0.0.0 through 1.0.31.0 employs cryptographic algorithms below acceptable security standards, exposing highly sensitive data to decryption by a network-positioned attacker. The CVSS vector (AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N) indicates network exploitation without authentication but requires high attack complexity, consistent with a passive interception or man-in-the-middle scenario. No public exploit code has been identified, and IBM has released a remediation patch via support advisory 7285147.

Technical ContextAI

The affected product is IBM Integrated Analytics System, an enterprise analytics appliance, covering all releases from 1.0.0.0 through 1.0.31.0 per CPE cpe:2.3:a:ibm:integrated_analytics_system:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*. The assigned CWE is CWE-759 (Use of a One-Way Hash without a Salt), which describes hash functions applied without a unique salt per value, making outputs vulnerable to precomputation attacks such as rainbow tables. However, the CVE description specifically references an attacker being able to 'decrypt' sensitive information, which more typically implies weak symmetric or asymmetric encryption rather than unsalted hashing - this inconsistency between the CWE classification and the description language should be noted and verified with IBM's advisory. The CVSS confidentiality impact of High reflects that the exposed data is described as 'highly sensitive.'

RemediationAI

Apply the vendor-released patch per IBM support advisory 7285147 at https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/node/7285147. The advisory is the authoritative source for the exact remediated version, which was not specified in the available input data and should not be inferred. As a compensating control pending patch deployment, network segmentation to restrict access to IBM IAS to only trusted internal hosts reduces the attacker's ability to achieve the network interception position required by the AC:H vector - note that this does not eliminate the cryptographic weakness but significantly raises the bar for exploitation. Encrypting communications to and from IAS using an independent, strong transport layer (such as TLS 1.2+ with strong cipher suites enforced at a network boundary) may further limit exposure of sensitive data even if the internal cryptographic algorithms remain weak.
