High CVSS 8.2
CVE-2026-10543
IBM Db2 11.5.0 through 11.5.9, and 12.1.0 through 12.1.5 is vulnerable to privilege escalation with a specially crafted query.
What this means
- Exposure
- Exploitable remotely over the network, without authentication and with no action from the victim.
- Impact
- An attacker can read some data and modify or destroy data.
- Weakness
- Authorisation is not checked in the right place, so a user acts outside their scope.
- Likelihood
- Its EPSS score stays low: nothing points to imminent exploitation, which is no reason to leave it unpatched.
What to doFold into the next patch cycle. Start with the instances exposed to the internet.
