CVE-2026-13476 Aug 12, 20:58 HIGH PATCH This Week

Remote unauthenticated OS command injection in IBM Informix Dynamic Server 12.10, 14.10, and 15.0 allows network-accessible attackers to execute arbitrary system commands under the Informix service account without any credentials or user interaction. Rooted in CWE-78, the flaw arises from insufficient validation of user-supplied input before it is passed to OS-level execution routines, spanning three major version branches of the product. No CISA KEV listing or public proof-of-concept has been identified at time of analysis; a vendor patch is available via the IBM advisory.

CVE-2026-13367 Aug 12, 20:53 HIGH PATCH This Week

Local privilege escalation in IBM Informix Dynamic Server 14.10 and 15.0 allows any low-privileged local OS user to gain root access by exploiting improper access controls in the setuid-root `oninit` utility. The CVSS vector (AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N) confirms a low-complexity local attack requiring no user interaction, resulting in full system compromise. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, and this vulnerability is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.

CVE-2026-13361 Aug 12, 19:43 HIGH PATCH This Week

Remote code execution in IBM Informix Dynamic Server 14.10, 12.10.x, and 15.0 is possible through a stack-based buffer overflow (CWE-121) in the oninit daemon's sq_sgkprepare function, triggered when processing a SQL interface request containing an unchecked length field. An authenticated, network-adjacent attacker with low-privilege SQL credentials can exploit this to achieve full compromise of the database server, resulting in complete confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis; IBM has released a patch via Security Advisory 7283143.
