CVE-2026-4364: Security Vulnerabilities have been found in IBM Verify Identity Access and IBM Security Verify Access
IBM Security Verify Access allows certificate listings retrieved via a browser session to return a JSON payload while incorrectly specifying the response Content-Type as text/html. Because the content is delivered with an HTML MIME type, browsers may interpret the JSON data as executable script under certain conditions. This creates an opportunity for JavaScript injection, potentially leading to cross-site scripting (XSS).
