Summary
Software: IBM watsonx Orchestrate Cartridge for Cloud Pak for Data, which includes the watsonx Assistant cartridge. An attacker with a low-privileged account can reach it remotely over the network and directly call administrative API endpoints, which skips the access restrictions enforced in the user interface, and so may carry out privileged functions they should not be able to run. The flaw is in the backend, which does not check authorization for these endpoints.

Read the original description
IBM watsonx Orchestrate Cartridge for Cloud Pak for Data 4.8.4 through 4.8.5, and 5.0.0 through 5.4.2 fails to enforce backend authorization checks, allowing low‑privileged users to directly invoke administrative API endpoints. This bypasses UI‑level access restrictions and may lead to unauthorized execution of privileged functions.
