Overview
IBM watsonx Orchestrate Cartridge for Cloud Pak for Data versions 4.8.4-4.8.5 and 5.0.0-5.4.2 can expose sensitive source code that should not be publicly accessible. This vulnerability allows attackers to read internal code, potentially revealing business logic or proprietary algorithms. It is a low-severity issue but still poses a confidentiality risk.
Description
IBM watsonx Orchestrate Cartridge for Cloud Pak for Data 4.8.4 through 4.8.5, and 5.0.0 through 5.4.2 could disclose sensitive source code information that should not be accessible.
Impact
Confidentiality is compromised as source code can be disclosed. Integrity may be affected if attackers modify code or misinterpret logic. Availability is not directly impacted. Defenders include system administrators and security teams managing IBM Cloud Pak for Data deployments.
Remediation
Apply the vendor’s latest patch or upgrade to version 5.4.3 or later. If a patch is unavailable, restrict file system permissions on cartridge directories to deny read access to non-privileged users. Monitor audit logs for unauthorized file access attempts.
Risk context
The CVSS score is 2.7 (low) and no EPSS data is available, indicating a low urgency. However, patching is recommended to eliminate the source-code disclosure risk.
