Technical Analysis
CVE-2026-92876 describes a high-severity vulnerability in IBM Maximo Application Suite - IoT Component versions 9.0.0, 9.1.0, and 9.2.0. The flaw is due to uncontrolled recursion (CWE-674), which can be triggered remotely without authentication, leading to a denial of service condition. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 7.5, reflecting network attack vector, low attack complexity, no privileges or user interaction required, and impact limited to availability.
Potential Impact
An unauthenticated remote attacker can exploit this vulnerability to cause a denial of service by triggering uncontrolled recursion, resulting in service disruption or crash of the IoT component. There is no impact on confidentiality or integrity.
Mitigation Recommendations
No vendor advisory or patch information is provided. Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the IBM vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until a fix is available, consider limiting network exposure of the affected component and monitoring for abnormal service behavior related to recursion or crashes.
