Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-4938 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Ibm Security Verify Access. 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-2026-4938/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-4938/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-4938","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-4938/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-4938","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-gwjw-gqpv-v99g"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_modify"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"IBM Identity Access","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Attackers with read-only privileges can make unauthorized modifications and deployments in IBM Verify Identity Access products.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"missing_authorization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"ibm","cpe":[{"product":"security_verify_access","vendor":"ibm"},{"product":"security_verify_access_container","vendor":"ibm"},{"product":"verify_identity_access","vendor":"ibm"},{"product":"verify_identity_access_container","vendor":"ibm"}],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-863","name":"Incorrect Authorization"}],"description":"IBM Verify Identity Access 11.0 through 11.0.2 and IBM Security Verify Access 10.0 through 10.0.9.1 and IBM Verify Identity Access Container 11.0 through 11.0.2 and IBM Security Verify Access Container 10.0 through 10.0.9.1 could allow an attacker with read-only privileges to make unauthorized modifications and deployments outside of their assigned permissions.","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":"Incorrect Authorization in IBM Verify Identity Access and IBM Security Verify Access","id":"CVE-2026-4938","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"ibm:security_verify_access","products":["ibm:security_verify_access"],"type":"missing_authorization","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"IBM i is Affected by Algorithm Downgrade in Transport Layer Security []","id":"CVE-2026-4942"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Power System Insufficient Entropy","id":"CVE-2026-4937"},"products":["Security Verify Access","Security Verify Access Container","Verify Identity Access","Verify Identity Access Container"],"published":"2026-07-17","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Security vulnerabilities have been found in IBM Verify Identity Access and IBM Security Verify Access","id":"CVE-2026-78401","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-10-08"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Security vulnerabilities have been found in IBM Verify Identity Access and IBM Security Verify Access","id":"CVE-2026-78406","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-10-08"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"IBM Security Verify Access Appliance command execution","id":"CVE-2024-49803","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-11-29"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2021-39070","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-02-02"},{"cvss_score":9.4,"headline":"IBM Security Verify Access Appliance hard coded credentials","id":"CVE-2024-49805","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-11-29"},{"cvss_score":9.4,"headline":"IBM Security Verify Access Appliance hard coded credentials","id":"CVE-2024-49806","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-11-29"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Security Vulnerabilities have been found in IBM Verify Identity Access and IBM Security Verify Access","id":"CVE-2026-1346","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-04-08"}],"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":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-07-28","vendors":["IBM"]},"summary":"Attackers with read-only privileges can make unauthorized modifications and deployments in IBM Verify Identity Access products.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-4938/"}
