IBM Concert 1.0.0 through 3.0.0 has a double free vulnerability that exists due to incorrect memory management. A local attacker can exploit this flaw to corrupt heap memory and execute arbitrary code in the context of the affected process.
AnalysisAI
Heap memory corruption in IBM Concert 1.0.0 through 3.0.0 lets an attacker who already has low-privileged local access to the host trigger a double free (CWE-415) and, with heap grooming, execute arbitrary code in the context of the affected process. Exploitation is authenticated and local only - CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H (base 7.8) - with full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact when successful; no public exploit identified at time of analysis. …

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Requires pre-existing local, low-privileged access (AV:L, PR:L) to a host running IBM Concert version 1.0.0 through 3.0.0; the attacker must deliver attacker-influenced input to the vulnerable component and perform heap grooming to convert the double free into reliable code execution. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The provided CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H, base 7.8) describes a locally-exploitable, low-complexity flaw requiring existing low-privilege access to the host, yielding full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact via arbitrary code execution - consistent with a CWE-415 double free that corrupts the heap. … 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 vendor patch; IBM lists patch availability for CVE-2026-6794 and directs administrators to https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/node/7288830 for the exact fixed build (patch available per vendor advisory - released patched version not independently confirmed in the provided data). … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours, inventory every IBM Concert instance and identify all hosts running a version in the affected range 1.0.0 through 3.0.0, then review local account membership on those hosts to see where low-privileged or shared local access already exists; within 7 days, apply the vendor-released fix referenced in IBM's advisory (https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/node/7288830), upgrading each affected IBM Concert deployment to the corrected release named there - moving off the 1.0.0 through 3.0.0 range entirely - and confirm the resulting build number after service restart; within 30 days, complete the upgrade across all remaining instances including non-production and isolated environments, tighten local account and privilege assignments on Concert hosts to least privilege, validate that process-level monitoring and alerting is active on those systems, and record any instance that cannot be patched in the window with an owner, justification, and compensating restriction.
