An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2013-3040 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Ibm Infosphere Information Server. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2013-3040/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2013-3040/index.md)","id":"CVE-2013-3040","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2013-3040/index.md","name":"CVE-2013-3040","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-x3wc-cq8w-x9q6"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"IBM InfoSphere Information Server","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can enumerate valid user accounts via login failure messages, facilitating brute-force attacks against IBM InfoSphere Information Server.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"information_disclosure"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"ibm","cpe":[{"product":"infosphere_information_server","vendor":"ibm"}],"cvss":{"score":5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:N","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-200","name":"Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor"}],"description":"IBM InfoSphere Information Server through 8.5 FP3, 8.7 through FP2, and 9.1 produces login-failure messages indicating whether the username or password is incorrect, which allows remote attackers to enumerate user accounts via a brute-force attack.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2013-3040","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"ibm:infosphere_information_server","products":["ibm:infosphere_information_server"],"type":"information_disclosure","year":"2013"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2013-3041"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2013-3039"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2013-08-16","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-4240","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-12-09"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Command injection in InfoSphere DataStage","id":"CVE-2022-40752","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-11-16"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Code injection in IBM InfoSphere Information Server","id":"CVE-2022-22425","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-11-03"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Deserialization in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-27583","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-01-21"},{"cvss_score":9.1,"headline":"XML external entity in IBM InfoSphere Information Server","id":"CVE-2022-40747","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-11-03"},{"cvss_score":9.1,"headline":"XML external entity in InfoSphere Information Server","id":"CVE-2017-1383","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-08-02"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"IBM InfoSphere Information Server command execution","id":"CVE-2025-36245","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-09-29"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-06","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can enumerate valid user accounts via login failure messages, facilitating brute-force attacks against IBM InfoSphere Information Server.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2013-3040/"}
