description

IBM API Connect versions 12.1.0.0 through 12.1.1.2 are affected by hard-coded credentials. A remote attacker could use the exposed credentials to obtain full administrative control; the advisory indicates no authentication or user interaction prerequisite.

mitigation

Upgrade to a vendor release newer than 12.1.1.2 after confirming the vendor's fixed-version guidance. Until then, reduce exposure by restricting network access to API Connect management interfaces to trusted administrators and networks.
