CVE-2026-84891
MediumCVSS 5.9Summary
IBM Guardium Data Protection 12.0, 12.1, and 12.2 could allow a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information due to the use of hard-coded credentials.
Risk Assessment
Hard-coded credentials may be exploited for unauthorized access to the data protection system and information leakage. This poses a serious risk to the confidentiality of organizational data.
Recommendation
Update IBM Guardium Data Protection to a version that removes the hard-coded credentials, or apply the vendor's guidance to change them. Review access logs for unauthorized login attempts.
