CSRF inherently requires victim interaction (UI:R) and no attacker privileges (PR:N); high integrity impact reflects ability to forge arbitrary user actions; no data disclosure makes C:N accurate.

IBM Planning Analytics 2.0, and 2.1 Local is vulnerable to cross-site request forgery which could allow an attacker to execute malicious and unauthorized actions transmitted from a user that the website trusts.
AnalysisAI
Cross-site request forgery in IBM Planning Analytics 2.0 and 2.1 Local enables network-based attackers to force authenticated users into executing unauthorized actions against the platform without their knowledge. The CVSS vector (PR:N/UI:R) confirms the attacker requires no credentials but must socially engineer an authenticated victim into visiting a malicious page or clicking a crafted link. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and IBM has issued a patch via advisory https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/node/7283486.
Technical ContextAI
IBM Planning Analytics (formerly Cognos TM1) is an enterprise AI-driven financial planning and analytics platform. CWE-352 (Cross-Site Request Forgery) arises when the application fails to validate that state-changing requests originate from its own trusted interface rather than from attacker-controlled third-party pages. Browsers automatically attach session cookies to cross-origin requests, so an authenticated victim's browser unwittingly forwards valid credentials when it loads a crafted payload on an attacker's page. The CPE cpe:2.3:a:ibm:planning_analytics:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* with a wildcard version field indicates the vulnerability spans multiple sub-versions within the 2.0 and 2.1 Local release lines. The 'Local' designation indicates on-premises deployments rather than IBM's SaaS offering.
RemediationAI
IBM has released a patch addressing this vulnerability; the exact patched version and upgrade procedure should be obtained directly from the vendor advisory at https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/node/7283486. Until patching is complete, compensating controls include configuring the Planning Analytics web server to emit a strict Referrer-Policy header (e.g., same-origin) to block cross-origin request forgery attempts, and enforcing SameSite=Strict or SameSite=Lax on session cookies to prevent browsers from forwarding credentials on cross-origin navigations - note that SameSite=Strict may break cross-domain SSO flows if in use. Restricting access to the Planning Analytics web interface via network-layer controls (firewall rules, VPN requirement) to trusted IP ranges reduces the population of attackers who can reach the application to deliver CSRF payloads. User awareness about avoiding unsolicited links while authenticated is a supplementary but not sufficient control.
