Technical Analysis
IBM Security Verify Access versions 10.0 to 10.0.9.2 and IBM Verify Identity Access versions 11.0 to 11.0.3 are vulnerable to a cross-site request forgery (CWE-352) vulnerability. An attacker could exploit this flaw to cause a user’s browser to perform unwanted actions on a trusted website where the user is authenticated. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 4.3, indicating medium severity, with network attack vector, low attack complexity, no privileges required, user interaction required, unchanged scope, no confidentiality impact, low integrity impact, and no availability impact. No known exploits are reported in the wild, and no patch or remediation information is provided in the input data.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation could allow an attacker to perform unauthorized actions on behalf of an authenticated user, potentially leading to low integrity impact. There is no impact on confidentiality or availability. The attack requires user interaction and can be executed remotely over the network without privileges.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Since no patch or official fix information is provided, users should monitor IBM's advisories for updates. Until a fix is available, consider implementing CSRF protections such as anti-CSRF tokens or other mitigations at the application or network level if feasible.
