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-2025-36221 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: IBM Cloud Pak for Data System - Cyclops. 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-2025-36221/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-36221/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-36221","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-36221/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-36221","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-x59x-7jqm-mqjh"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cloud_service","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"IBM Cloud Pak for Data","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can bypass authentication using default manufacturing passwords in IBM Cloud Pak for Data System Cyclops.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"hardcoded_credentials"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"ibm","cpe":[{"product":"cloud_pak_for_data_system_-_cyclops","vendor":"ibm"}],"cvss":{"score":5.3,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-1392","name":"Use of Default Credentials"}],"description":"IBM Cloud Pak for Data System - Cyclops 11.3.0.2 through  Interim Fix 002 IBM Cloud Pak for Data System uses default passwords default passwords from the manufacturing process for use during the installation process, which could allow an attacker to bypass authentication.","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":"Vulnerabilities exists in IBM Cloud Pak for Data System (CPDS 1.0) - Cyclops.","id":"CVE-2025-36221","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"hardcoded_credentials","year":"2025"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"IBM Fusion insecure default configuration","id":"CVE-2025-36222"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Vulnerabilities exists in IBM Cloud Pak for Data System (CPDS 1.0) - Cyclops.","id":"CVE-2025-36220"},"products":["Cloud Pak for Data System - Cyclops"],"published":"2026-05-26","related":[{"cvss_score":4.3,"headline":"Vulnerabilities exists in IBM Cloud Pak for Data System (CPDS 1.0) - Cyclops.","id":"CVE-2025-36220","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-05-26"}],"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":"yes","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-05-26","vendors":["IBM"]},"summary":"Attackers can bypass authentication using default manufacturing passwords in IBM Cloud Pak for Data System Cyclops.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-36221/"}
