Description

The Security component in IBM DB2 UDB 9.5 before FP6a logs AUDIT events by using a USERID and an AUTHID value corresponding to the instance owner, instead of a USERID and an AUTHID value corresponding to the logged-in user account, which makes it easier for remote authenticated users to execute Audit administration commands without discovery.

Affected products
