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-2026-17203 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: IBM Administration Runtime Expert for i. 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-2026-17203/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-17203/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-17203","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-17203/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-17203","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-w47h-p6px-82qf"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation","data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"IBM i administration tool","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote authenticated attackers can bypass authentication to gain elevated privileges and access sensitive information in IBM Administration Runtime Expert for i.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"auth_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"ibm","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":7.5,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-287","name":"Improper Authentication"}],"description":"IBM Administration Runtime Expert for i 1R1M0 could allow a remote authenticated attacker to obtain sensitive information due to improper authentication enforcement.","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":"Auth bypass in Administration Runtime Expert for i","id":"CVE-2026-17203","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"auth_bypass","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"IBM i is Affected By Multiple Vulnerabilities in Host Servers","id":"CVE-2026-17206"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"IBM i is Affected By Multiple Vulnerabilities in Host Servers","id":"CVE-2026-17199"},"products":["Administration Runtime Expert for i"],"published":"2026-08-28","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"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":"2026-09-01","vendors":["IBM"]},"summary":"Remote authenticated attackers can bypass authentication to gain elevated privileges and access sensitive information in IBM Administration Runtime Expert for i.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-17203/"}
