CVE-2026-12005: CWE-78 Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command ('OS Command Injection') in IBM Security Verify Access
IBM Security Verify Access 10.0 through 10.0.9.2 and IBM Verify Identity Access 11.0 through 11.0.3 and IBM Verify Identity Access Container 11.0 through 11.0.3 contains a input validation vulnerability in the management interface that allows already privileged attackers to execute additional operations by crafting a malicious HTTP request.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2026-12005 is an OS Command Injection vulnerability in IBM Security Verify Access and related products. The flaw exists due to improper neutralization of special elements in input processed by the management interface. Privileged attackers can exploit this by crafting malicious HTTP requests to execute arbitrary OS commands, potentially leading to full compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the affected system. The affected versions include IBM Security Verify Access 10.0 through 10.0.9.2, IBM Verify Identity Access 11.0 through 11.0.3, and IBM Verify Identity Access Container 11.0 through 11.0.3. No official patch or remediation level has been published yet, and no known exploits are reported in the wild.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation allows attackers with high privileges to execute arbitrary OS commands on the affected system, resulting in complete compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability. This can lead to unauthorized operations beyond the attacker's original privileges.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until a fix is available, restrict access to the management interface to trusted administrators only and monitor for suspicious activity. Follow IBM's official guidance once published.
