CVE-2023-45716

Sensitive-information disclosure through URL query strings

Published Feb 9, 2024 · Updated Jun 3, 2025

Information disclosure in HCL Sametime 11.5 through 12.0.1 FP1 allows physically proximate attackers to read sensitive URL data. An undisclosed component places sensitive information in a URL rather than keeping it out of request targets and browser-visible records. Exploitation requires low privileges, user interaction, physical proximity, and high complexity; HCL reports confidentiality loss only.
