CVE-2026-56609: CWE-327 Use of a Broken or Risky Cryptographic Algorithm in HCL Software HCL iControl
HCL iControl is affected by Weak SSL/TLS Version Supported vulnerability. It was observed that the application was using weak TLS versions such as TLS 1.0 and 1.1. These outdated protocols lack modern security features, making them vulnerable to known attacks and exposing sensitive information during data transmission.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2026-56609 identifies a vulnerability in HCL iControl version 3.2.0 where weak SSL/TLS versions (TLS 1.0 and 1.1) are supported. These protocols are deprecated and vulnerable to known cryptographic attacks, potentially allowing attackers to intercept or manipulate sensitive data in transit. The vulnerability is categorized under CWE-327, reflecting the use of broken or risky cryptographic algorithms. No official patch or remediation guidance has been provided by the vendor as of the published date.
Potential Impact
The use of weak TLS versions in HCL iControl 3.2.0 can lead to exposure of sensitive information during network communications. While the CVSS score indicates a medium impact, the vulnerability primarily affects confidentiality and integrity of data in transit. There are no known exploits in the wild reported at this time.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is available, it is recommended to disable support for TLS 1.0 and 1.1 in the affected application if possible, and configure the system to use stronger protocols such as TLS 1.2 or TLS 1.3. Monitor vendor communications for updates on patches or official mitigations.
