Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.27%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

IBM OpenPages with Watson 8.3 and 9.0 could provide weaker than expected security in storage of encrypted data. If an authenticated remote attacker with access to the database or a local attacker with access to server files could extract the encrypted data, they could exploit this vulnerability to use additional cryptographic methods to possibly extract the encrypted data.
