| Exploitation Conditions | Exploitation requires the target to be an authenticated HCL MyCloud user (PR:L - a valid low-privilege session must exist). The attacker must engineer conditions meeting high attack complexity (AC:H), meaning specific circumstances beyond simple network access are necessary - such as positioning to observe cross-path requests or leveraging a co-located malicious resource. User interaction is required (UI:R), so the victim must actively make a request that causes the unscoped cookie to be transmitted to an unintended path. The limiting factors are substantial: no unauthenticated exploitation path exists, opportunistic scanning is not viable, and the confidentiality impact is bounded to low (partial session data exposure). Non-default attacker positioning is required. |
| Impact | The CVSS 2.6 (AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N) accurately reflects a low-severity, difficult-to-exploit finding. High attack complexity (AC:H) indicates the attacker must engineer specific conditions beyond standard network access; required user interaction (UI:R) means passive exploitation is not viable; and low privileges required (PR:L) confirms the target must already be authenticated. The sole impact is low confidentiality - partial session data exposure - with no integrity or availability impact. No EPSS score was provided in the input data, which limits probabilistic exploitation forecasting. The vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV, and no POC exploit is identified. SSVC analysis would place this firmly in the 'Track' category: no active exploitation, non-automatable, low technical impact. This is a hygiene-level finding appropriate for a scheduled patch cycle, not emergency response. It is not a high-CVSS-but-low-real-risk situation - it is genuinely low risk across all available signals. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An authenticated user of HCL MyCloud visits the application while an attacker is positioned to observe or intercept HTTP requests - for example, via a shared network or a malicious resource loaded from an unintended path. Because the session cookie lacks a Path restriction, the browser includes it in requests to paths beyond the intended application scope, where the attacker captures the token and potentially reuses it for session impersonation. High attack complexity and required user interaction make opportunistic mass exploitation unlikely. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Jul 21, 2026
Session cookie exposure in HCL MyCloud arises from the cookie Path attribute not being set, causing authentication tokens to be transmitted to all paths within the application domain rather than restricted to intended endpoints. The CVSS 2.6 score reflects a genuinely limited-impact finding requiring both high attack complexity and authenticated user interaction to exploit, with only low confidentiality impact and no integrity or availability consequences. No public exploit code or active exploitation has been identified at time of analysis.
RemediationAI
The primary remediation is to apply the vendor-supplied fix detailed in HCL Software advisory KB0132381 (https://support.hcl-software.com/csm?id=kb_article&sysparm_article=KB0132381). An exact patched version number is not independently confirmed from the available input data - consult the advisory directly for the target upgrade version. As a compensating control pending patching, administrators can configure the application server or reverse proxy to inject a restrictive Path attribute (e.g., Path=/) on session cookies at the perimeter layer, limiting cookie scope. Additionally, ensuring the Secure and HttpOnly attributes are also set on session cookies will reduce the broader cookie security risk surface. These controls carry minimal operational trade-offs and are standard hardening practices regardless of this specific CVE.

Technical ContextAI · show details
HCL MyCloud (CPE: cpe:2.3:a:hclsoftware:mycloud:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*) is an HCL Software enterprise product. The vulnerability is formally tagged CWE-614 (Sensitive Cookie in HTTPS Session Without 'Secure' Attribute), though the description specifically identifies the Path attribute as the missing control - a subtle but distinct issue. The Path attribute constrains which URL paths trigger the browser to include the cookie in requests. When omitted, browsers default to sending the cookie to every path under the origin, increasing the exposure surface: unintended endpoints, background requests, or scripts at other paths may receive the session cookie. This enlarges the window for session token interception or cross-path leakage compared to properly scoped cookies. Note: the mismatch between CWE-614 (Secure attribute) and the described finding (Path attribute) should be verified against the vendor advisory at KB0132381.
