CVE-2026-19280
MediumCVSS 5.2Exploitation Probability (EPSS)
Low risk2th percentile - higher than 2% of all known CVEs
Summary
IBM i versions 7.6, 7.5, 7.4, and 7.3 could allow a denial of service as a result of a buffer overflow in a PASE process. An authenticated attacker could leverage this to terminate their own process.
Risk Assessment
An attacker can cause a crash of their own process, potentially leading to application disruptions, but not directly threatening other users.
Recommendation
Upgrade IBM i to the latest versions that include security fixes.
