05 June 2024 IBM i Security Alert: Db2 for IBM i (03/15/2024)

Hello everyone, another important security alert has just been published by IBM, directly concerning the Db2 infrastructure for IBM i. According to IBM, this infrastructure could allow a local user to gain elevated privileges through an unqualified library call. Following this manipulation, a malicious actor could cause arbitrary code to execute with administrator privileges.

We strongly advise you to apply the PTFs on the official IBM support site(https://lnkd.in/e7jg22td) due to the very easy accessibility of this flaw and its high CVSS score (8.4).
