Synopsis

The remote database server is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

According to its self-reported version number, IBM Db2 is affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

- IBM Db2 for Linux, UNIX and Windows (includes Db2 Connect Server) could disclose sensitive information to an authenticated user from the monitoring and event tables. (CVE-2025-36372)

- IBM Db2 is vulnerable to remote code execution due to improper pre-auth DRDA handshake handling.
(CVE-2026-10109)

- IBM Db2 for Linux, UNIX and Windows (includes Db2 Connect Server) could allow an authenticated user to cause a denial of service due to improper neutralization of special elements in the data query logic of XMLTable-derived columns. (CVE-2026-11906)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
