Sensitive information exposure via GET query strings
Published Nov 5, 2025 · Updated Nov 5, 2025
Information disclosure in HCL iAutomate 6.5.1 and 6.5.2 allows remote authenticated users to read sensitive data through HTTP requests. An undisclosed request handler places sensitive information in the query string of an HTTP GET request, where URLs can be retained in browser history, logs, caches, or referrer data. Valid low-privilege access is required; HCL has not identified the affected endpoint or disclosed which information is exposed, limiting the consequence to unauthorized access to that data or associated resources.
