CVE-2026-3161
MediumCVSS 5.9Summary
IBM Cloud Pak System 2.3.6.0 and 2.3.6.1 uses weaker than expected cryptographic algorithms that could allow an attacker to decrypt highly sensitive information.
Risk Assessment
An attacker could intercept and decrypt data that should be protected by strong encryption, leading to disclosure of sensitive information.
Recommendation
Update IBM Cloud Pak System to a version containing the fix and adopt stronger cryptographic algorithms. Until then, limit exposure of services using these algorithms.
Other vulnerabilities in IBM Cloud Pak System
See all- CVE-2026-4418Medium
IBM Cloud Pak System 2.3.6.0 and 2.3.6.1 is vulnerable to HTML injection. A remotely authenticated attacker could inject malicious HTML code that, when viewed, is executed in the victim's web browser within the security context of the hosting site.
- CVE-2026-3295High
IBM Cloud Pak System 2.3.6.0 and 2.3.6.1 is vulnerable to cross-site scripting. User-supplied input is not properly sanitized or HTML-encoded before being stored and rendered, allowing an authenticated attacker to store malicious JavaScript (Stored XSS).
- CVE-2023-38375Medium
IBM Cloud Pak System 2.3.6.0 and 2.3.6.1 is vulnerable to cross-site scripting. This vulnerability allows users to embed arbitrary JavaScript code in the Web UI, thus altering the intended functionality and potentially leading to credentials disclosure within a trusted session.
- CVE-2026-13463High
IBM Cloud Pak System 2.3.5.0 could allow a local attacker to obtain sensitive information due to the insertion of credentials into log files.
