IBM does not disclose key Db2 functionality nor replication steps for a vulnerability to avoid providing too much information to any potential malicious attacker. IBM does not want to enable a malicious attacker with sufficient knowledge to craft an exploit of the vulnerability.
Note: In addition to applying Special Build, registry variable DB2_LOAD_RESTRICTED_IO_PATH needs to be set to USE_EXTBL_LOCATION or one or more semi-colon separated paths.
