CVE-2008-3662
Gallery before 1.5.9, and 2.x before 2.2.6, does not set the secure flag for the session cookie in an https session, which can cause the cookie to be sent in http requests and make it easier for remote attackers to capture this cookie.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.84%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
