An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2024-42207 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: HCL Software iAutomate. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-42207/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-42207/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-42207","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-42207/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-42207","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-r89w-qx4v-xpfv"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["account_takeover"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"HCL iAutomate","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"An attacker can hijack a victim's session ID to take over their authenticated account in HCL iAutomate.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"auth_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"HCL","cpe":[{"product":"dryice_iautomate","vendor":"hcltech"}],"cvss":{"score":5.5,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:L/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-384","name":"Session Fixation"}],"description":"HCL iAutomate is affected by a session fixation vulnerability.  An attacker could hijack a victim's session ID from their authenticated session.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"HCL iAutomate is affected by a session fixation vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-42207","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"auth_bypass","year":"2024"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"HCL Connections is vulnerable to an information disclosure vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-42208"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"HCL iReflection Use of Third party vulnerable and outdated components issue was detected in the web application.","id":"CVE-2024-42206"},"products":["iAutomate"],"published":"2025-02-05","related":[{"cvss_score":7.6,"headline":"HCL iAutomate is affected by a sensitive data exposure vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-31955","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-07-24"},{"cvss_score":7.1,"headline":"HCL iAutomate is affected by an insufficient session expiration","id":"CVE-2025-31952","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-07-24"},{"cvss_score":7.1,"headline":"HCL iAutomate is affected by hardcoded credentials","id":"CVE-2025-31953","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-07-24"},{"cvss_score":6.4,"headline":"Use of a broken cryptographic algorithm affects HCL DRYiCE iAutomate","id":"CVE-2023-23347","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-08-09"},{"cvss_score":5.4,"headline":"HCL iAutomate is susceptible to a sensitive information disclosure","id":"CVE-2025-31954","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-11-05"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-02-05","vendors":["HCL Software"]},"summary":"An attacker can hijack a victim's session ID to take over their authenticated account in HCL iAutomate.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-42207/"}
