CVE-2026-17644
HighCVSS 8.8Summary
IBM Financial Transaction Manager (FTM) for RedHat OpenShift could allow a local attacker to gain unauthorized access to sensitive information and modify transaction data due to the use of hard-coded credentials.
Risk Assessment
A local attacker could exploit hard-coded credentials to access sensitive data and manipulate transactions, potentially leading to financial fraud.
Recommendation
It is recommended to immediately change all hard-coded credentials, implement secure secret management, and apply patches from IBM.
