CVE-2021-20579
IBM Db2 for Linux, UNIX and Windows (includes Db2 Connect Server) 9.7, 10.1, 10.5, 11.1, and 11.5 could allow a user who can create a view or inline SQL function to obtain sensitive information when AUTO_REVAL is set to DEFFERED_FORCE.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.11%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
