CVE-2022-38383

Local information disclosure via browser caching

Published Jun 28, 2024 · Updated Aug 3, 2024

Information disclosure in affected IBM Cloud Pak for Security and QRadar Suite Software versions allows local users to read cached web pages. The web interface permits pages containing sensitive data to remain in the browser cache instead of applying a policy that prevents local storage. Another user with access to the same client system can retrieve the cached pages; affected releases span 1.10.0.0 through 1.10.21.0 across the two product names.
