DescriptionCVE.org

HCL Hive is affected by a cryptographic primitive with a risky implementation which could allow an attacker unauthorized lateral compromise or widespread credential leakage if a single internal component is breached.

AnalysisAI

HCL Hive employs a risky cryptographic primitive (CWE-1240) that creates systemic trust failure across the platform: if any single internal component is compromised, an attacker can exploit the weak cryptographic construction to achieve unauthorized lateral movement or harvest credentials at scale. The CVSS vector (AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N) indicates the flaw is reachable over the network without authentication, though high attack complexity caps opportunistic risk. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation The primary exploitation prerequisite is an initial breach of at least one internal HCL Hive component - the CVE description explicitly frames impact as conditional on this internal foothold. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 7.4 score reflects high confidentiality and integrity impact (C:H/I:H) but is tempered by high attack complexity (AC:H), which materially reduces real-world exploitability compared to a 9.x critical. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in.
Remediation Consult and apply guidance from the HCL Software advisory at https://support.hcl-software.com/csm?id=kb_article&sysparm_article=KB0131731; no exact patched version is confirmed from currently available data, so monitor the advisory for a fix release. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours, activate enhanced monitoring for suspicious internal lateral movement and unusual privilege escalation patterns; conduct emergency audit of all internal HCL Hive components for signs of compromise. …
