HCL Digital Experience and HCL Digital Experience Compose could be susceptible to Host header injection. An attacker can manipulate the Host header and cause the application to behave in unexpected ways.
AnalysisAI
Host header injection in HCL Digital Experience and HCL Digital Experience Compose enables unauthenticated remote attackers to manipulate HTTP Host headers, causing the application to generate attacker-controlled redirect URLs targeting victims - a classic open redirect primitive (CWE-601) confirmed by the Open Redirect tag. The CVSS 6.1 score reflects Changed scope (S:C), meaning impact crosses beyond the vulnerable component, with low confidentiality and integrity impact consistent with phishing and session-hijacking abuse. …

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | User interaction is required - the victim must follow a crafted link or request that carries the injected Host header value (CVSS UI:R). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 6.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N) presents a remotely exploitable, low-complexity attack requiring no privileges - but user interaction (UI:R) is a meaningful limiting factor that reduces automated mass exploitation risk. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker crafts a legitimate-looking URL pointing to the target organization's HCL Digital Experience portal but includes a manipulated HTTP Host header referencing an attacker-controlled domain. The link is distributed via phishing email to enterprise users; when a victim clicks it, the application trusts the injected Host header, generates a redirect to the attacker's site, and the victim - believing they are interacting with a trusted internal portal - may submit credentials or be served malware. … |
| Remediation | Consult the HCL vendor advisory at https://support.hcl-software.com/csm?id=kb_article&sysparm_article=KB0130849 for patched release versions and upgrade instructions - no specific fixed version number is confirmed from the data available for this analysis. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
