CVE-2017-1142
IBM Kenexa LCMS Premier on Cloud 9.x and 10.0 could allow a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information, caused by the failure to set the secure flag for the session cookie in SSL mode.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.22%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
