CVE-2010-2637

Status: ModifiedMedium (4.3)—

IBM WebSphere MQ 6.0 before 6.0.2.9 and 7.0 before 7.0.1.1 does not encrypt the username and password in the security parameters field, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information by sniffing the network traffic from a .NET client application.

CVSS

Exploitation probability (EPSS)

EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).
