CVE-2008-4693
The SORT/LIST SERVICES component in IBM DB2 9.1 before FP6 and 9.5 before FP2 writes sensitive information to the trace output, which allows attackers to obtain sensitive information by reading "PASSWORD-RELATED CONNECTION STRING KEYWORD VALUES."
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.27%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
