CVE-2023-45706Network attack vector

Data exposure via SAML configuration

Published Mar 28, 2024 · Updated Nov 7, 2024

Cross-site scripting in HCL BigFix Platform Web Reports allows remote authenticated users to expose data through SAML configuration. HCL identifies the SAML configuration path but has not disclosed the affected field or the validation or output-encoding operation that mishandles administrator-supplied input. Exploitation requires a Web Reports administrator, configured SAML, and user interaction; affected releases are 9.5 through 9.5.23, 10.0 through 10.0.10, and 11.0.0 through 11.0.1.
