Summary
IBM MQ 9.2.0.0 through 9.2.0.44 LTS, 9.3.0.0 through 9.3.0.42 LTS, 9.4.0.0 through 9.4.0.26 LTS, 9.4.0.0 through 9.4.5.1 CD, and 10.0.0.0 through 10.0.0.5 LTS and CD could allow an authenticated attacker to obtain sensitive information or cause a denial of service due to improper validation of message selection parameters.
Risk Assessment
An authenticated attacker could access sensitive information or disrupt service availability, causing a denial of service. This could affect systems relying on IBM MQ.
Recommendation
Update IBM MQ to the latest version containing the fix. Restrict authenticated user privileges and monitor for unusual requests.

IBM MQ 9.2.0.0 through 9.2.0.44 LTS, 9.3.0.0 through 9.3.0.42 LTS, 9.4.0.0 through 9.4.0.26 LTS, 9.4.0.0 through 9.4.5.1 CD, and 10.0.0.0 through 10.0.0.5 LTS and CD stores potentially sensitive information in log files that could be read by a local user.
- CVE-2026-13292High
IBM MQ LTS and CD versions allow an authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code by injecting malicious environment variables through transfer request metadata. The vulnerability affects the message transfer mechanism.
- CVE-2026-13289High
IBM MQ LTS and CD versions are vulnerable to an XML external entity (XXE) attack when processing XML data. A remote attacker could exploit this to expose sensitive information or consume memory resources.
- CVE-2026-13284High
IBM MQ LTS and CD versions are vulnerable to an XML external entity (XXE) attack when processing XML data. A remote attacker could exploit this to expose sensitive information or consume memory resources.
- CVE-2026-12538Medium
IBM MQ 9.4.0.0 to 9.4.0.26, 9.4.1.0 to 9.4.5.3, and 10.0.0.1 to 10.0.0.5 could allow an authenticated attacker to obtain sensitive information or cause a denial of service due to improper validation of message header structure length fields.
- CVE-2026-12356High
IBM MQ LTS and CD versions allow an authenticated user with command queue access to execute arbitrary code by injecting malicious arguments into Ant script commands. The vulnerability affects command queue processing.
- CVE-2026-11724High
IBM MQ 9.2.0.0 through 9.2.0.44 LTS, 9.3.0.0 through 9.3.0.42 LTS, 9.4.0.0 through 9.4.0.26 LTS, 9.4.0.0 through 9.4.5.1 CD, and 10.0.0.0 through 10.0.0.5 LTS and CD could allow an authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code on a Managed File Transfer agent host due to improper validation of metadata used during script execution.
- CVE-2026-11376High
IBM MQ 9.2.0.0 through 9.2.0.44 LTS, 9.3.0.0 through 9.3.0.42 LTS, 9.4.0.0 through 9.4.0.26 LTS, 9.4.0.0 through 9.4.5.1 CD, and 10.0.0.0 through 10.0.0.5 LTS and CD could allow an authenticated attacker to cause a denial of service or potentially execute arbitrary code due to an integer overflow when processing subscription requests with crafted buffer size values.
