Technical details

A denial of service vulnerability exists in the IBM Db2 component bundled with IBM Cloud APM. The flaw is classified as CWE-1284 (Improper Validation of Specified Quantity in Input) and resides within the data query logic of the Db2 Fenced environment. An authenticated attacker with network access can submit specially crafted SQL queries that fail to be properly neutralized, leading to a system crash or resource exhaustion. The vulnerability affects Db2 versions 11.5 and 12.1. Remediation requires updating the underlying Db2 server and applying the 8.1.4.0-IBM-APM-SERVER-IF0004 (or later) patch to the Cloud APM server.

Affected products

IBM Cloud APM Base Private 8.1.4
IBM Cloud APM Advanced Private 8.1.4
IBM Db2 for Linux, UNIX and Windows 11.5.0 through 11.5.9, 12.1.0 through 12.1.4
