AI-suggested

Until an official fix is available, users should avoid accepting session identifiers from query strings or request variables and enforce session handling strictly via cookies. Monitor vendor channels for patches addressing this session fixation vulnerability.

Description

HUBzero CMS through 2.2.32 accepts session identifiers from query strings and request variables instead of cookies alone, allowing unauthenticated attackers to fixate victim sessions. Attackers can obtain a valid session identifier, send victims a crafted link containing it, and replay the identifier after the victim authenticates to hijack their account and access.
