description

Guardium Data Protection 12.2 and 12.2.2 are affected by missing authentication for a critical function. A remote attacker may be able to perform arbitrary management operations without authentication.

mitigation

Restrict network access to Guardium management interfaces to trusted administrative networks and users. No fixed version is recorded in the provided evidence; obtain and apply IBM's vendor update when available.
