Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-18166 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: IBM Db2. 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-2026-18166/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-18166/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-18166","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-18166/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-18166","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-rh3c-985w-2g3c"],"analysis":{"component_type":"database","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"IBM Db2 database","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Privileged users can exploit improper authorization in the CREATE WRAPPER command to read sensitive files from the host filesystem.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"ibm","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":7.7,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:N/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-284","name":"Improper Access Control"}],"description":"IBM Db2 11.5.0 through 11.5.9, and 12.1.0 through 12.1.5 for Linux, UNIX and Windows (includes DB2 Connect Server) could allow a remote authenticated attacker to obtain sensitive information due to improper authorization when using the CREATE WRAPPER command.","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":"Path traversal in Db2","id":"CVE-2026-18166","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Stack-based buffer overflow in TP-Link Archer AX55 v4","id":"CVE-2026-18167"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"@fastify/oauth2 vulnerable to Login CSRF via plantable OAuth state cookies","id":"CVE-2026-18165"},"products":["Db2"],"published":"2026-10-12","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":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-10-12","vendors":["IBM"]},"summary":"Privileged users can exploit improper authorization in the CREATE WRAPPER command to read sensitive files from the host filesystem.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-18166/"}
