CVE-2006-3855
The ifx_load_internal function in IBM Informix Dynamic Server (IDS) allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary C code via the DllMain or _init function in a library, aka "C code UDR."
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.92%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
