CVE-2015-7436
Status: ModifiedLow (2.5)—
IBM Tivoli Common Reporting (TCR) 2.1 before IF14, 2.1.1 before IF22, 2.1.1.2 before IF9, 3.1.0.0 through 3.1.2 as used in Cognos Business Intelligence before 10.2 IF16, and 3.1.2.1 as used in Cognos Business Intelligence before 10.2.1.1 IF12 preserves user permissions across group-add and group-remove operations, which allows local users to bypass intended access restrictions in opportunistic circumstances by leveraging administrative changes to group membership.
CVSS
- Version: 3.0
- Vector: CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N
- Base score: 2.5
Exploitation probability (EPSS)
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.28%
- Percentile among all scored CVEs: 19
- Score date: 10/4/2026
