Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2015-5021 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-2015-5021/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-5021/index.md)","id":"CVE-2015-5021","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-5021/index.md","name":"CVE-2015-5021","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-j2cw-6x2w-h9hg"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation","data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"IBM InfoSphere Information Server","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Authenticated DataStage users can bypass job-execution restrictions and access sensitive information in IBM InfoSphere Information Server.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"missing_authorization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"ibm","cpe":[{"product":"infosphere_information_server","vendor":"ibm"}],"cvss":{"score":5.5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:L/Au:S/C:P/I:P/A:N","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-264","name":null}],"description":"IBM InfoSphere Information Server 11.3 and 11.5 allows remote authenticated DataStage users to bypass intended job-execution restrictions or obtain sensitive information via unspecified vectors.","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":"Missing authorization in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-5021","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"ibm:infosphere_information_server","products":["ibm:infosphere_information_server"],"type":"missing_authorization","year":"2015"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-5022"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Missing authorization in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-5020"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2015-11-04","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":"Authenticated DataStage users can bypass job-execution restrictions and access sensitive information in IBM InfoSphere Information Server.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-5021/"}
