Until an official fix is available, users should avoid accessing IBM Maximo Application Suite over unsecured HTTP links and ensure that all connections use HTTPS. Additionally, administrators should monitor for updates from IBM regarding this vulnerability.
Description
IBM Maximo Application Suite versions 8.10, 8.11, 9.0, and 9.1 do not set the 'secure' attribute on authorization tokens or session cookies. This omission allows cookies to be sent over unencrypted HTTP connections if a user follows an HTTP link, potentially exposing cookie values to interception by attackers. The vulnerability is classified as CWE-614 and has a medium severity with a CVSS score of 4.3. There are no known exploits in the wild and no patch or official fix information is provided at this time.
