CVE-2026-6925: CWE-22 Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal') in IBM Concert
IBM Concert 1.0.0 through 3.0.0 could allow a remote attacker to traverse directories on the system. An attacker could send a specially crafted URL request containing "dot dot " sequences ( /.. /) to view arbitrary files on the system.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2026-6925 describes a path traversal vulnerability in IBM Concert versions 1.0.0 through 3.0.0. The flaw allows a remote attacker to traverse directories on the affected system by including "dot dot" sequences (/../) in a URL request, potentially enabling unauthorized viewing of arbitrary files. The vulnerability has no known exploits in the wild and does not require user interaction or privileges to exploit.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation could allow an attacker to read arbitrary files on the system, potentially exposing sensitive information. The vulnerability does not impact integrity or availability, only confidentiality to a limited extent.
Mitigation Recommendations
