CVE-2016-4890
ZOHO ManageEngine ServiceDesk Plus before 9.2 uses an insecure method for generating cookies, which makes it easier for attackers to obtain sensitive password information by leveraging access to a cookie.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (3.46%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
