Argument injection vulnerability in the iim: URI handler in IBMIM.exe in IBM Installation Manager 1.3.2 and earlier, as used in IBM Rational Robot and Rational Team Concert, allows remote attackers to load arbitrary DLL files via the -vm option, as demonstrated by a reference to a UNC share pathname.
CVE-2009-3518 is a security vulnerability that . Impacting 1 product from ibm organizations running these solutions should prioritize assessment and patching.
Originally identified in 2009, this vulnerability predates many modern security frameworks and practices. The vulnerability landscape of that era was characterized by different threat models and less mature defense mechanisms compared to contemporary standards.

SecUtils normalizes and enriches National Vulnerability Database (NVD) records by standardizing vendor and product identifiers, aggregating vulnerability metadata from both NVD and MITRE sources, and providing structured context for security teams. For ibm's affected products, we extract Common Platform Enumeration (CPE) data, Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) classifications, CVSS severity metrics, and reference data to enable rapid vulnerability prioritization and asset correlation. This record contains no exploit code, proof-of-concept instructions, or attack methodologies—only defensive intelligence necessary for patch management, risk assessment, and security operations.
