IBM Security Guardium 10 and 10.5 contains hard-coded credentials, such as a password or cryptographic key, which it uses for its own inbound authentication, outbound communication to external components, or encryption of internal data.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.84%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
