HighCVSS 7.3Exploitation Probability (EPSS)
Low risk16th percentile - higher than 16% of all known CVEs
Summary
IBM Financial Transaction Manager (FTM) for RedHat OpenShift could allow a remote attacker to access sensitive information and modify system configurations due to missing authentication for a critical function.
Risk Assessment
An attacker could gain access to sensitive data and alter system configuration, potentially leading to security breaches and service disruption. This may result in unauthorized actions and information leakage.
Recommendation
Apply patches from IBM that enforce required authentication. Verify that critical functions are properly secured.
