CVE-2026-18535
waiting for further signalsZero needs more public information before it can validate it.GHSA-68pw-29w8-gp2w ↗EUVD-2026-118926 ↗
description
API Connect versions 10.0.8.0 through 10.0.8.12 and 12.1.0.0 through 12.1.1.2 are affected. An attacker with network access and existing privileges may cause resource exhaustion or misuse wildcard query behavior, potentially affecting service availability and data exposure.
mitigation
Upgrade to a vendor-supported release identified in IBM's current advisory guidance. Until then, restrict access to API Connect and its query interfaces to trusted, least-privileged users and monitor for unusually expensive or broad queries.
outcome
Contextual, not validated: no deterministic check could cover this one, and no technique passed our review.
