High CVSS 7.8
CVE-2026-16695
IBM i Access Client Solutions 1.1.2.0 through 1.1.9.13 could allow a local attacker to execute arbitrary code due to improper neutralization of special elements used in an OS command.
What this means
- Exposure
- Exploitable with local access to the machine and without authentication — but only if a user opens booby-trapped content.
- Impact
- An attacker can read sensitive data, modify or destroy data and take the service offline.
- Weakness
- Unfiltered input reaches the system shell, letting the attacker run their own commands on the server.
- Likelihood
- Its EPSS score stays low: nothing points to imminent exploitation, which is no reason to leave it unpatched.
