Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2025-2898 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: IBM Maximo Application Suite. 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-2025-2898/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-2898/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-2898","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-2898/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-2898","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-5wcf-r54j-7xp9"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"IBM Maximo Application Suite","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An attacker with limited access can elevate privileges due to insecure RBAC configurations in IBM Maximo Application Suite.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"ibm","cpe":[{"product":"maximo_application_suite","vendor":"ibm"}],"cvss":{"score":7.5,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-266","name":"Incorrect Privilege Assignment"}],"description":"IBM Maximo Application Suite 9.0 could allow an attacker with some level of access to elevate their privileges due to a security configuration vulnerability in Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) configurations.","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":"IBM Maximo Application Suite privilege escalation","id":"CVE-2025-2898","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2025"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"IBM Semeru Runtime denial of service","id":"CVE-2025-2900"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"IBM Planning Analytics Local cross-site scripting","id":"CVE-2025-2896"},"products":["Maximo Application Suite"],"published":"2025-05-06","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"There is a vulnerability in the IBM Maximo Manage application in IBM Maximo Application Suite for Cognos Analytics","id":"CVE-2025-36386","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-10-28"},{"cvss_score":8.2,"headline":"IBM Maximo Application Suite XML external entity injection","id":"CVE-2024-27266","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-03-14"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"IBM Maximo Application Suite information disclosure","id":"CVE-2024-22328","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-04-06"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"IBM Maximo Application Suite improper access control","id":"CVE-2023-43037","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-04-10"},{"cvss_score":6.4,"headline":"Maximo Asset Management cross-site scripting","id":"CVE-2023-38723","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-03-13"},{"cvss_score":6.4,"headline":"IBM Maximo Asset Management cross-site scripting","id":"CVE-2022-35645","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-03-02"}],"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":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-02-26","vendors":["IBM"]},"summary":"An attacker with limited access can elevate privileges due to insecure RBAC configurations in IBM Maximo Application Suite.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-2898/"}
