"The version of IBM Cognos Analytics installed on the remote host is 12.1.3. It is, therefore, affected by a race
condition vulnerability as referenced in the IBM Security Bulletin No. 7280311:
- IBM Cognos Analytics could allow an attacker to obtain incorrect report summary results or cause
report-processing failures due to a race condition in the Agentic AI assistant's concurrent
request-handling logic when multiple authenticated users submit report-related tasks simultaneously.
(CVE-2026-15995)
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
