CVE-2016-0380 describes a vulnerability in IBM Sterling Connect:Direct for Unix versions 4.1.0 before 4.1.0.4 iFix073 and 4.2.0 before 4.2.0.4 iFix003. The vulnerability stems from the software's use of default file permissions (0664), which allows local users to access sensitive information through standard filesystem operations. This is a low-severity vulnerability with a CVSS score of 3.3, indicating a local attack vector and low attack complexity. The primary impact is a potential compromise of confidentiality, as sensitive data could be read, but there is no impact on integrity or availability. There is no evidence of active exploitation, and no public exploit code (Metasploit, Nuclei, ExploitDB) is available. The vulnerability has received minimal community attention and media coverage.
