Summary

CVE-2026-1015 is a medium-severity SSRF (CWE-918) vulnerability in Ibm Infosphere Information Server. Its CVSS base score is 5.4 (Medium).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Network Service Discovery (T1046); ranked at the 11th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.

The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to AC-4 (Information Flow Enforcement) and SI-10 (Information Input Validation) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Vulnerability Data

IBM InfoSphere Information Server 11.7.0.0 through 11.7.1.6 is vulnerable to server-side request forgery (SSRF). This may allow an authenticated attacker to send unauthorized requests from the system, potentially leading to network enumeration or facilitating other attacks.

CWE(s)

Related Threats

MITRE ATT&CK Enterprise TechniquesAI

T1046 Network Service Discovery Discovery
Adversaries may attempt to get a listing of services running on remote hosts and local network infrastructure devices, including those that may be vulnerable to remote software exploitation.
T1018 Remote System Discovery Discovery
Adversaries may attempt to get a listing of other systems by IP address, hostname, or other logical identifier on a network that may be used for Lateral Movement from the current system.
Why these techniques?

SSRF directly enables internal network enumeration via server-issued requests, mapping to service and remote system discovery techniques.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

prevent

Enforces policy-based restrictions on outbound requests, directly blocking the unauthorized server-initiated connections that define this SSRF flaw.

prevent

Validates all URL and request parameters supplied by authenticated users, preventing crafted inputs from triggering server-side fetches to arbitrary targets.

prevent

Applies boundary controls and egress filtering that can limit or deny the external network probes and enumeration enabled by the SSRF vulnerability.
