CVE-2026-81212
CriticalCVSS 10.0Summary
IBM DataStage on Cloud Pak for Data 5.4.0.0 allows an unauthenticated user to perform an arbitrary write into shared Redis under any tenant's key. This collapses the platform's credential-encryption boundary and lets an anonymous caller poison any tenant's cached flow parameters.
Risk Assessment
An anonymous attacker can poison other tenants' flow data and break credential protection, leading to loss of confidentiality and integrity of platform data.
Recommendation
Update IBM DataStage on Cloud Pak for Data to a patched version, restrict network access to the shared Redis, and verify tenant isolation.
