Unauthenticated remote denial of service in IBM Verify Identity Access (the current name of IBM Security Verify Access) and its container editions, where crafted incoming requests reach a handler that fails to validate resource consumption, leading to uncontrolled recursion (CWE-674) and service exhaustion. CVSS 7.5 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N, availability-only impact) means any network-reachable instance can be knocked offline without credentials, but confidentiality and integrity are unaffected. IBM has published a vendor fix; no public exploit code or CISA KEV entry was present in the supplied intelligence, and no EPSS score was provided.
