| Exploitation Conditions | Exploitation requires an authenticated session with at least low-privilege credentials in HCL MyXalytics - unauthenticated exploitation is not indicated by the CVSS vector (PR:L). A victim user must interact with or view the page containing the spoofed content (UI:R), meaning the attack is not self-executing. The application must be network-accessible (AV:N). No additional non-default configuration is specified as a prerequisite. Exploitation is limited by: (1) mandatory attacker authentication, (2) required victim interaction, (3) impact confined to integrity only with no confidentiality or availability consequence, and (4) no scope change beyond the vulnerable application session. |
| Impact | The overall risk profile is low. The CVSS 3.5 base score is consistent with the mechanics: exploitation requires a valid low-privilege account and deliberate victim interaction, limiting automated or mass exploitation. EPSS data is not provided, and no public exploit code or CISA KEV listing exists, reinforcing that real-world exploitation remains theoretical at this time. The practical threat is narrow - an attacker would need an internal or application-level account, making this most relevant in multi-tenant or shared-login deployments. Even a mid-sized analytics team relying on MyXalytics should treat this as a routine patch cycle item rather than an emergency response trigger; the constrained scope change (S:U) ensures blast radius stays within the affected session. The sole meaningful impact is integrity (I:L), as reflected in the C:N/A:N CVSS metrics, narrowing the real-world consequence to phishing or social engineering via manipulated UI rather than direct data exfiltration or service disruption. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An authenticated low-privilege user crafts a request or data entry that causes the MyXalytics interface to render attacker-controlled text or UI elements in a context that appears to originate from HCL or an internal authority. A victim user browsing to the affected page sees the spoofed content - for example, a fake credential prompt or fraudulent notification - and is deceived into providing credentials or taking a harmful action. No public proof-of-concept code exists for this vulnerability at time of analysis. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Sep 07, 2026
Content spoofing in HCL MyXalytics (CWE-451) enables an authenticated, low-privileged attacker to inject manipulated content into the application's user interface, causing it to appear as though the content originates from a trusted source. The vulnerability requires victim interaction - a user must view the attacker-influenced page - and carries a CVSS 3.5 (Low) base score, reflecting its constrained impact on integrity only with no confidentiality or availability effects. No public exploit code or active exploitation has been identified; the primary real-world concern is phishing and social engineering facilitated through the spoofed interface.
RemediationAI
The primary remediation is to consult and apply guidance from the HCL Software advisory at https://support.hcl-software.com/csm?id=kb_article&sysparm_article=KB0132828. No exact fixed version number is discernible from the available input data, so administrators should review the advisory directly to identify the patched release. As a compensating control pending patching, restricting access to the MyXalytics application to known-trusted, authenticated users and enforcing least-privilege on account provisioning reduces the pool of potential attackers. Monitoring for anomalous or unexpected content rendered in application pages - particularly in shared or multi-user deployments - may help detect exploitation attempts. Input validation and output encoding hardening at the application layer, if configurable, would reduce the exploitable surface.

Technical ContextAI · show details
CWE-451 (User Interface Misrepresentation of Critical Information) describes a class of vulnerabilities where an application fails to adequately distinguish between trusted and untrusted content when rendering its interface, enabling an attacker to inject or alter visible content in a way that deceives users about its origin or legitimacy. HCL MyXalytics is a business analytics platform produced by HCL Software (CPE: cpe:2.3:a:hcl_software:myxalytics:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*). The wildcard version in the CPE indicates that the scope of affected versions has not been narrowed by NVD - all tracked releases may be affected. The attack surface is network-accessible (AV:N) but requires an authenticated session (PR:L) and a victim who interacts with the spoofed content (UI:R), placing this squarely in the category of authenticated UI-injection/content-spoofing rather than unauthenticated input injection.
