Low risk4th percentile - higher than 4% of all known CVEs
Summary
IBM Guardium Data Protection 12.2.2 could allow a remote attacker to conduct a man-in-the-middle attack due to improper certificate validation.
Risk Assessment
Improper certificate validation may allow eavesdropping or tampering with traffic, threatening data confidentiality and integrity. In Guardium environments, this could lead to session hijacking of administrative sessions.
Recommendation
Update IBM Guardium Data Protection to a version that fixes certificate validation. Ensure communication occurs only over trusted channels with properly configured certificates.
