IBM MQ 9.1.0.0 through 9.1.0.37 LTS, 9.2.0.0 through 9.2.0.43 LTS, 9.3.0.0 through 9.3.0.41 LTS, 9.3.0.0 through 9.3.5.1 CD, 9.4.0.0 through 9.4.0.25 LTS, 9.4.0.0 through 9.4.5.1 CD, and 10.0.0.0 could allow an authenticated attacker with MFT publish authority to obtain sensitive information or cause a denial of service due to XML external entity injection in the mqweb MFT REST API.
AnalysisAI
XML External Entity (XXE) injection in IBM MQ's mqweb MFT REST API allows network-accessible, low-privileged attackers holding MFT publish authority to read sensitive files from the MQ server filesystem or cause denial of service. Affected deployments span seven release trains across LTS and CD channels from version 9.1 through 10.0.0.0. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Three concrete conditions must simultaneously be true: (1) the IBM MQ installation includes the MFT (Managed File Transfer) component and the mqweb server is running and network-accessible; (2) the attacker possesses valid IBM MQ credentials authenticated to the queue manager; and (3) those credentials carry specifically the MFT publish authority permission, which is not granted by default to standard MQ users and must be explicitly assigned by an administrator. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The official CVSS 3.1 score of 6.8 with vector AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:H accurately reflects a genuinely constrained attack surface. … 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 IBM-provided security fix documented at https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/node/7284895; exact patched version numbers per release train must be confirmed from that advisory, as they were not independently specified in available source data. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
