## Summary

IBM Storage Scale and IBM Storage Scale System, including the Management GUI, are affected by a flaw in which an undocumented flag can open an unauthenticated path in the REST API. An attacker needs local access and high-level privileges to the system to exploit it, and successful attacks could expose confidential data and let the attacker change information.

Model-written summary (anthropic/claude-haiku-5.5). Verify details against the original sources.

## Affected

- IBM Storage Scale System: from 6.2.3.0, through 6.2.3.6; from 7.0.0.0, through 7.0.1.0
- IBM Storage Scale: from 6.0.0.0, through 6.0.1.0; from 5.2.3.0, through 5.2.3.8

## Description

IBM Storage Scale System 6.2.3.0 through 6.2.3.6, and 7.0.0.0 through 7.0.1.0 and IBM Storage Scale 6.0.0.0 through 6.0.1.0, and 5.2.3.0 through 5.2.3.8 could allow an attacker to leverage an undocumented flag to gain access to an unauthenticated path in the REST API.
