CVE-2026-17097

TITLE

IBM of Power System E1050 (9043-MRX) Firmware Vulnerabilities related to array index validation in multiple products such as

Trust: 0.8

sources: JVNDB: JVNDB-2026-030119

DESCRIPTION

IBM PowerVM Hypervisor FW1120.00, FW1110.00 through FW1110.30, FW1060.00 through FW1060.80, and FW950.00 through FW950.H2 is affected by a vulnerability in the PowerVM hypervisor call interface. An attacker with root access to a guest partition can issue a specially crafted hypervisor call causing a virtual processor to become permanently unresponsive, requiring a full platform re-IPL to restore normal operation. In some cases this may also cause the guest to inject a small amount of data into hypervisor or partition memory with no attacker control over the target location. Successful exploitation results in an integrity and availability impact to the managed system. IPL Initialization may be required. • Some of the information handled by the software may be rewritten. • The software may completely shut down

Trust: 1.62
