Browser protection weakening via missing HTTP headers
Published Oct 23, 2024 · Updated Nov 25, 2024
Missing security headers in HCL Sametime 12.0.2 and earlier allow remote attackers to weaken browser-enforced protections. Web-service responses omit unspecified security-related HTTP headers, causing browsers to apply less restrictive defaults for the policies those headers control. Exploitation requires user interaction and high-complexity conditions; HCL has not identified the omitted headers or a specific downstream attack.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
