Detailsinfo

A vulnerability, which was classified as critical, has been found in IBM QRadar SIEM up to 7.2.6 (Log Management Software). Affected by this issue is an unknown part of the component Process Handler. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a os command injection vulnerability. Using CWE to declare the problem leads to CWE-78. The product constructs all or part of an OS command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended OS command when it is sent to a downstream component. Impacted is confidentiality, integrity, and availability. CVE summarizes:

IBM QRadar SIEM 7.1 before MR2 Patch 13 and 7.2 before 7.2.7 executes unspecified processes at an incorrect privilege level, which makes it easier for remote authenticated users to obtain root access by leveraging a command-injection issue.
