CVE-2016-0327: IBM Security Identity Manager (ISIM) Virtual Appliance 7.0.0.0 through 7.0.1.0 before 7.0.1-ISS-SIM-FP0001...

Security readout for executives and security teams

This vulnerability affects IBM Security Identity Manager Virtual Appliance 7.0.0.0 through 7.0.1.0 before fix pack 7.0.1-ISS-SIM-FP0001. A local user could gain administrator privileges. For an identity management appliance, that is potentially serious, but the public record lacks CVSS details and does not describe the method. Exposure is limited to organizations running IBM Security Identity Manager Virtual Appliance 7.0.0.0 through 7.0.1.0 before 7.0.1-ISS-SIM-FP0001, especially where non-administrative local users can access the appliance. Prioritize remediation for any affected identity management appliance with local user access. Identity systems are high-value control points, and administrator compromise can affect access governance. Urgency is lower if the product is not deployed or local access is tightly restricted. Mitigation focus: Apply IBM fix pack 7.0.1-ISS-SIM-FP0001 or later where applicable.; Check IBM advisory and X-Force entry for current vendor guidance.; Restrict local appliance access to trusted administrative users..
