02 Description

IBM Security QRadar EDR Software has a vulnerability where user credentials may be stored in plain text, potentially exposing sensitive information.

03 Exploitation and scoring

Exploitation
Assessed, none found. CISA's assessment recorded neither public exploit code nor evidence of exploitation when it was made.
SSVC decision
  • ExploitationnoneCISA recorded no public exploit code and no evidence of exploitation.
  • AutomatablenoAt least one step from reconnaissance to exploitation cannot be reliably automated.
  • Technical ImpactpartialSuccessful exploitation gives limited control of the vulnerable component.
CISA publishes the decision points, not a final SSVC decision. The decision also depends on mission and well-being impact, which is a property of your deployment rather than of the vulnerability.
EPSS probability
0.09% probability of exploitation activity in the next 30 days.
EPSS percentile
Equal to or higher than the score of 0.7% of scored records. A rank, not a probability.
NVD base score
4.4 (CVSS v3.x), scored by the NVD independently of the CNA.
NVD CVSS vector
CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N
NVD analysis status
Analyzed. NVD last modified this record on 2026-10-02.
Red Hat severity
No Red Hat rating. Red Hat rates the CVEs that affect its products.

Exploit-prediction scores from FIRST. Independent scoring and analysis status from the NVD. Vendor severity from Red Hat. Exploitation assessment and catalog membership from CISA.

07 Remediation

IBM encourages customers to update their systems promptly. ProductFix versionIBM Security QRadar EDR3.12.25 The IBM Security QRadar EDR operator can be upgraded automatically when new compatible versions are available. However, you can control whether an operator is upgraded automatically by setting an approval strategy. Two approval strategies are available: * Automatic (default) - New operator versions are installed automatically when they are available on the subscription channel. * Manual - When a new operator version is available on the subscription channel, the subscription indicates that an update is available, but you must approve the update manually. For more information about the manual installation process, view Installing QRadar EDR https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/security-qradar-edr/3.12
