What is CVE-2018-1484?

The IBM BigFix Platform versions 9.2.0 through 9.2.14 and 9.5 through 9.5.9 fail to secure the attribute on authorization tokens and session cookies. This oversight could enable attackers to intercept cookie values by luring users to click on an unsecured link. If an unsuspecting user accesses a malicious HTTP link, the session cookies can be transmitted insecurely. This vulnerability presents a risk, as attackers could potentially capture and misuse cookie data, compromising user sessions and sensitive information. For further details, see IBM's report.
