CVE-2024-54176
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedIBM DevOps Deploy 8.0 through 8.0.1.4, 8.1 through 8.1.0.0 and IBM UrbanCode Deploy (UCD) 7.0 through 7.0.5.25, 7.1 through 7.1.2.21, 7.2 through 7.2.3.14 and 7.3 through 7.3.2 could allow an authenticated user to obtain sensitive information about other users on the system due to missing authorization for a function.
Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · high confidenceIBM DevOps Deploy and UrbanCode Deploy contain a missing authorization vulnerability where an authenticated user can access sensitive information about other users on the system. An attacker with basic credentials can enumerate or view user profile data (potentially including names, emails, roles, or other attributes) that should be restricted to authorized administrators. This is an information disclosure via broken access control (CWE-200).

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Identify the installed IBM deployment productLocate the product installation directory and look for version manifest or about dialog. Common paths: /opt/ibm/ucd or /opt/ibm/udd. Check for version.txt, about.html, or use the product's version command if available.Affected if The product is IBM DevOps Deploy or IBM UrbanCode Deploy
-
Determine the exact version numberRead the version from installation files. Typical locations: <install_dir>/bin/version.properties, <install_dir>/etc/version, or access the /about endpoint in the web UI if available.Affected if The exact version cannot be determined or differs from installed product files
-
Compare DevOps Deploy version against affected rangesFor IBM DevOps Deploy, check if version is >= 8.0.0.0 AND < 8.0.1.5, OR equals exactly 8.1.0.0. Note: versions 8.0.1.5 through 8.1.0.0 (excluding 8.1.0.0) are NOT affected.Affected if Version falls within >= 8.0.0.0 to < 8.0.1.5 OR equals 8.1.0.0
-
Compare UrbanCode Deploy version against affected rangesFor IBM UrbanCode Deploy, check if version falls in any of these ranges: >= 7.0.0.0 to < 7.0.5.26, >= 7.1.0.0 to < 7.1.2.22, >= 7.2.0.0 to < 7.2.3.15, OR >= 7.3.0.0 to < 7.3.2.10.Affected if Version matches any of the four affected version ranges listed
You are affected if the installed product is IBM DevOps Deploy version 8.0.0.0 through 8.0.1.4 or exactly 8.1.0.0, OR IBM UrbanCode Deploy version 7.0.0.0 through 7.0.5.25, 7.1.0.0 through 7.1.2.21, 7.2.0.0 through 7.2.3.14, or 7.3.0.0 through 7.3.2.9.
