Security Vulnerabilities have been addressed in IBM Verify Identity Access and IBM Security Verify Access
Vulnerability Details
CVEID: CVE-2025-12635
DESCRIPTION: IBM WebSphere Application Server 8.5, 9.0 and IBM WebSphere Application Server Liberty 17.0.0.3 through 25.0.0.12 are affected by cross-site scripting due to improper validation of user-supplied input. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by using a specially crafted URL to redirect the user to a malicious site.
CWE: CWE-79: Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting')
CVSS Source: IBM
CVSS Base score: 5.4
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N)
CVEID: CVE-2026-2862
DESCRIPTION: IBM Security Verify could allow a remote attacker to access sensitive information due to an inconsistent interpretation of an HTTP request by a reverse proxy.
CWE: CWE-444: Inconsistent Interpretation of HTTP Requests ('HTTP Request/Response Smuggling')
CVSS Source: IBM
CVSS Base score: 5.3
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N)
CVEID: CVE-2023-46233
DESCRIPTION: crypto-js is a JavaScript library of crypto standards. Prior to version 4.2.0, crypto-js PBKDF2 is 1,000 times weaker than originally specified in 1993, and at least 1,300,000 times weaker than current industry standard. This is because it both defaults to SHA1, a cryptographic hash algorithm considered insecure since at least 2005, and defaults to one single iteration, a 'strength' or 'difficulty' value specified at 1,000 when specified in 1993. PBKDF2 relies on iteration count as a countermeasure to preimage and collision attacks. If used to protect passwords, the impact is high. If used to generate signatures, the impact is high. Version 4.2.0 contains a patch for this issue. As a workaround, configure crypto-js to use SHA256 with at least 250,000 iterations.
CWE: CWE-328: Use of Weak Hash
CVSS Source: IBM X-Force
CVSS Base score: 9.1
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N)

CVEID: CVE-2026-1491
DESCRIPTION: IBM Security Verify could allow a remote attacker to access sensitive information due to an inconsistent interpretation of an HTTP request by a reverse proxy.
CWE: CWE-444: Inconsistent Interpretation of HTTP Requests ('HTTP Request/Response Smuggling')
CVSS Source: IBM
CVSS Base score: 5.3
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N)
CVEID: CVE-2026-1188
DESCRIPTION: In the Eclipse OMR port library component since release 0.2.0, an API function to return the textual names of all supported processor features was not accounting for the separator inserted between processor features. If the output buffer supplied to this function was incorrectly sized, failing to account for the separator when determining when a write to the buffer was safe could lead to a buffer overflow. This issue is fixed in Eclipse OMR version 0.8.0.
CWE: CWE-131: Incorrect Calculation of Buffer Size
CVSS Source: NVD
CVSS Base score: 9.8
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H)
CVEID: CVE-2026-1346
DESCRIPTION: IBM Security Verify Access Container could allow a locally authenticated user to escalate their privileges to root due to execution with unnecessary privileges than required.
CWE: CWE-250: Execution with Unnecessary Privileges
CVSS Source: IBM
CVSS Base score: 9.3
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H)
CVEID: CVE-2026-1345
DESCRIPTION: IBM Security Verify Access Container could allow an unauthenticated user to execute arbitrary commands as lower user privileges on the system due to improper validation of user supplied input.
CWE: CWE-78: Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command ('OS Command Injection')
CVSS Source: IBM
CVSS Base score: 7.3
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L)
CVEID: CVE-2026-4101
DESCRIPTION: IBM Security Verify Access under certain load conditions could allow an attacker to bypass authentication mechanisms and gain unauthorized access to the application.
CWE: CWE-287: Improper Authentication
CVSS Source: IBM
CVSS Base score: 8.1
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H)
CVEID: CVE-2026-4364
DESCRIPTION: IBM Security Verify Access allows certificate listings retrieved via a browser session to return a JSON payload while incorrectly specifying the response Content-Type as text/html. Because the content is delivered with an HTML MIME type, browsers may interpret the JSON data as executable script under certain conditions. This creates an opportunity for JavaScript injection, potentially leading to cross-site scripting (XSS).

Disclaimer
According to the Forum of Incident Response and Security Teams (FIRST), the Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) is an "industry open standard designed to convey vulnerability severity and help to determine urgency and priority of response." IBM PROVIDES THE CVSS SCORES ""AS IS"" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. CUSTOMERS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR ASSESSING THE IMPACT OF ANY ACTUAL OR POTENTIAL SECURITY VULNERABILITY. In addition to other efforts to address potential vulnerabilities, IBM periodically updates the record of components contained in our product offerings. As part of that effort, if IBM identifies previously unidentified packages in a product/service inventory, we address relevant vulnerabilities regardless of CVE date. Inclusion of an older CVEID does not demonstrate that the referenced product has been used by IBM since that date, nor that IBM was aware of a vulnerability as of that date. We are making clients aware of relevant vulnerabilities as we become aware of them. "Affected Products and Versions" referenced in IBM Security Bulletins are intended to be only products and versions that are supported by IBM and have not passed their end-of-support or warranty date. Thus, failure to reference unsupported or extended-support products and versions in this Security Bulletin does not constitute a determination by IBM that they are unaffected by the vulnerability. Reference to one or more unsupported versions in this Security Bulletin shall not create an obligation for IBM to provide fixes for any unsupported or extended-support products or versions.
