Attack Vector: Local
Attack Complexity: Low
Privileges Required: None
User Interaction: None
Scope: Unchanged
Confidentiality: Low
Integrity: None
Availability: None

Bold values are the worst case: easiest to exploit or largest impact.

Attack Vector: Local: The vulnerable component is not bound to the network stack and the attacker’s path is via read/write/execute capabilities. Either: the attacker exploits the vulnerability by accessing the target system locally (e.g., keyboard, console), or remotely (e.g., SSH); or the attacker relies on User Interaction by another person to perform actions required to exploit the vulnerability (e.g., tricking a legitimate user into opening a malicious document).
Attack Complexity: Low: Specialized access conditions or extenuating circumstances do not exist. An attacker can expect repeatable success against the vulnerable component.
Privileges Required: None: The attacker is unauthorized prior to attack, and therefore does not require any access to settings or files to carry out an attack.
User Interaction: None: The vulnerable system can be exploited without any interaction from any user.
Scope: Unchanged: An exploited vulnerability can only affect resources managed by the same security authority. In this case, the vulnerable component and the impacted component are either the same, or both are managed by the same security authority.
Confidentiality: Low: There is some loss of confidentiality. Access to some restricted information is obtained, but the attacker does not have control over what information is obtained, or the amount or kind of loss is limited. The information disclosure does not cause a direct, serious loss to the impacted component.
Integrity: None: There is no loss of integrity within the impacted component.
Availability: None: There is no impact to availability within the impacted component.

Exploitation evidence

Disclosed: evidence found.
CVE published 3 Jun 2025
Detectable: no evidence on record.
No public nuclei template indexed
Weaponised: no evidence on record.
No public exploit code indexed in Metasploit or Exploit-DB
Exploited in the wildExploited: no evidence on record.
Not in CISA KEV and no source reports exploitation
Observed by OffSeq MirageSeen by Mirage: no evidence on record.
No attack traffic recorded by OffSeq Mirage sensors

A missing step is not evidence of safety. Sources: cve.org (opens in a new tab), the Metasploit, Exploit-DB and nuclei-templates index as of 2026-10-26.

Disclosed: The CVE record is public on cve.org. Its publication is t = 0.
Detectable: A public nuclei template can find exposed instances, for defenders and attackers alike.
Weaponised: Public exploit code exists in Metasploit or Exploit-DB, or CISA SSVC reports a public proof of concept.
Exploited in the wild: CISA KEV lists it, CISA SSVC rates exploitation active, or a source reports attacks.
Observed by OffSeq Mirage: OffSeq Mirage honeypot sensors recorded attack traffic for this CVE, or found exposed hosts without attack traffic.

Moments are spaced evenly, not to scale; a dashed line marks a gap of six months or more. Deltas count from t = 0. Sources that give only a date (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, or a time of exactly 00:00Z) read “same day” rather than hours. Metasploit modules carry the flaw’s disclosure date, not their release date, and nuclei templates carry no date, so both appear above but not on the timeline.

AI-suggested

To mitigate this vulnerability, European organizations should implement strict endpoint security controls to prevent unauthorized local access to systems running IBM QRadar Suite or IBM Cloud Pak for Security. This includes enforcing strong user account separation, disabling shared user accounts, and applying least privilege principles. Organizations should configure browsers used to access these products to limit caching of sensitive web pages, such as by enabling private browsing modes or configuring cache-control headers if possible. Additionally, organizations should monitor for updates or patches from IBM addressing this vulnerability and apply them promptly once available. As a temporary measure, restricting access to the affected web interfaces to trusted users and secure workstations can reduce risk. Regularly clearing browser caches and educating users about the risks of shared workstations can also help. Network segmentation and endpoint detection tools can further reduce the likelihood of local attackers exploiting cached data. Finally, auditing access logs and monitoring for unusual local access patterns can aid in early detection of exploitation attempts.

Description

IBM QRadar Suite Software 1.10.12.0 through 1.11.2.0 and IBM Cloud Pak for Security 1.10.0.0 through 1.10.11.0 allows web pages to be stored locally which can be read by another user on the system.

Impact

For European organizations using IBM QRadar Suite or IBM Cloud Pak for Security, this vulnerability could lead to unauthorized disclosure of sensitive security monitoring data or incident response information. Since these products are often used for security event management and threat detection, exposure of such data could reveal details about network architecture, detected threats, or security policies. This could aid attackers in crafting more targeted attacks or bypassing security controls. The impact is heightened in environments where workstations are shared among multiple users or where endpoint security controls are insufficient to isolate user sessions. Confidentiality breaches could undermine compliance with European data protection regulations such as GDPR, especially if personal data or security incident details are exposed. Although the vulnerability does not allow remote exploitation, insider threats or attackers with local access could leverage this flaw to gain unauthorized insights. The lack of impact on integrity and availability limits the scope of damage, but the confidentiality risk remains significant in sensitive environments.
