Session Cookie Vulnerability in IBM Sterling File Gateway

CVE-2020-4763

Summary

IBM Sterling File Gateway versions 6.0.0.0 to 6.0.3.2 and 2.2.0.0 to 2.2.6.5 are vulnerable due to the absence of the secure attribute on authorization tokens and session cookies. This oversight can allow attackers to intercept cookie values by tricking users into clicking on a malicious link or by embedding this link in a compromised site. Once the cookie is sent over an insecure connection, attackers can snoop on the traffic to capture sensitive information.
