IBM's developers have closed two vulnerabilities in QRadar SIEM that could allow attackers to attack systems. So far, there is no evidence of attacks already in progress.
Two points of attack
Because an incorrectly configured cron job is executed with actually unnecessary authorizations, attackers can obtain higher user rights in an unspecified way (CVE-2025-33120"high").
In the second case in the context of the IBM QRadar SIEM Dashboard, access data can be leaked (CVE-2025-36042"medium").
The IBM developers state in a warning message that versions 7.5 up to and including 7.5.0 UP13 are at risk. The versions IBM QRadar SIEM 7.5.0 UP13 IF01 and IBM QRadar Incident Forensics UP13 IF01.

Most recently, the IBM developers have prepared the IT management software Tivoli Monitoring against possible attacks.
