CVE-2026-17069: CWE-352 Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF)
CVE-2026-17069 is a high-severity vulnerability in IBM i versions 7.3, 7.4, 7.5, and 7.6. It involves improper validation of anti-CSRF tokens, allowing a remote authenticated attacker to bypass security restrictions. The vulnerability does not require user interaction and impacts confidentiality and integrity without affecting availability.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
IBM i versions 7.3 through 7.6 contain a Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability (CWE-352) due to improper validation of anti-CSRF tokens. This flaw enables a remote attacker with valid authentication to bypass security controls, potentially leading to unauthorized actions that compromise confidentiality and integrity of the system. The CVSS v3.1 base score is 8.1, reflecting network attack vector, low attack complexity, required privileges, no user interaction, and high impact on confidentiality and integrity.
Potential Impact
An authenticated remote attacker can bypass security restrictions by exploiting improper anti-CSRF token validation. This can lead to unauthorized actions affecting the confidentiality and integrity of the IBM i system. Availability is not impacted. There are no known exploits in the wild at this time.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the IBM vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until a fix is available, limit access to trusted users and monitor for suspicious activity related to CSRF attacks. No official fix or temporary workaround has been documented in the provided data.
