CVE-2026-19124: Multiple Vulnerabilities in IBM API Connect

Q: What must an attacker obtain to exploit this issue?

The attacker needs access to stored IBM API Connect data containing protected credentials. With that data, the hard-coded key built into the product could be used to decrypt sensitive credentials.

Q: Which IBM API Connect versions are affected?

IBM API Connect versions 10.0.8.0 through 10.0.8.12 are identified as affected.

Q: How can I assess whether credentials may already be exposed?

Assess whether unauthorized parties could have accessed stored IBM API Connect data that contains protected credentials. If such data was obtained, the affected product's built-in key could allow those credentials to be decrypted.

Updated

IBM API Connect 10.0.8.0 through 10.0.8.12 could allow an attacker with access to stored data to decrypt sensitive credentials due to the use of a hard-coded cryptographic key. The key protecting stored credentials is built into the product, so credentials could be decrypted if the stored data is obtained.
