CVE-2025-62312: CWE-522: Insufficiently Protected Credentials in HCL AION
HCL AION version 2. 1. 0 uses basic authorization tokens for authentication, which is identified as insufficient protection of credentials (CWE-522). This vulnerability may allow credentials to be intercepted or misused if secure transmission methods are not employed. The CVSS score is low (3. 0), reflecting limited impact with low confidentiality loss and no integrity or availability impact. There is no official patch or remediation level provided by the vendor at this time, and no known exploits in the wild have been reported.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2025-62312 describes a vulnerability in HCL AION 2.1.0 where basic authorization tokens are used for authentication. This practice can lead to insufficient protection of credentials (CWE-522), potentially exposing them to interception or misuse, particularly if not combined with secure transmission protocols such as TLS. The CVSS 3.1 score of 3.0 indicates a low severity issue with limited confidentiality impact and no integrity or availability impact. No vendor advisory or patch information is currently available, and the product is not a cloud service.
Potential Impact
The impact is limited to potential exposure of authentication credentials due to the use of basic authorization tokens. Confidentiality may be partially compromised if credentials are intercepted, but there is no impact on integrity or availability. No known exploitation in the wild has been reported.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is available, users should ensure that basic authorization tokens are transmitted only over secure channels such as TLS to reduce the risk of credential interception. Consider alternative authentication mechanisms that provide stronger credential protection.
