IBM has announced the resolution of several security vulnerabilities affecting its IBM Security Directory Integrator and IBM Security Verify Directory Integrator products.
The vulnerabilities, identified through the Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) system, expose users to various risks, including sensitive data disclosure and potential cookie theft.
The company urges customers to update to the latest versions of the software to mitigate these risks.

The vulnerabilities impact the following products and their respective versions:
IBM has released fixes to address these vulnerabilities. For IBM Security Directory Integrator 7.2.0, users must apply the fix pack version 7.2.0-ISS-SDI-FP0013, while IBM Security Verify Directory Integrator users are advised to upgrade to version 10.0.0.2 of the product.
Containerized versions of IBM Security Verify Directory Integrator 10.0.0 have been updated, and the relevant container images are made available through IBM’s official documentation portal.
