Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions:
hawtio servlet version 1.4
Description:
A issue was found where the hawtio servlet uses a single HttpClient instance to proxy requests, resulting in all clients sharing the same cookies due to a persistent cookie store. This means cookies are stored locally and not passed between the client and the end URL.
Recommendations:
For hawtio servlet version 1.4, consider disabling the proxy functionality until a patch is available to prevent cookie sharing among clients. Restrict access to the hawtio servlet to minimize the risk of exploitation.
