Description
The Apple profile generated for the Apple built-in Mail, Calendar and Contacts account to synchronize with HCL Traveler requires the Logon Name and Mail Address to be embedded in them.  The values cannot be changed later on, so the Apple profile generation page asks for those values and reflects them back in the generated Apple profile.  The Apple profile is not usable without additional information and only allows the attacker to attack their own device, but HCL Traveler could at least check that the values submitted and reflected back in the Apple profile are found in the Domino directory entry for the already authenticated user.

AI Analysis

Impact

The vulnerability is a low‑severity input reflection flaw in HCL Traveler’s Apple profile generation. When users create a profile, the system requires them to provide a Logon Name and Mail Address and then reflects those values back into the generated profile without modification. The flaw allows the authenticated user to capture their own credentials in the profile, but the data cannot be altered later and the feature cannot be abused to affect other devices or users. The weakness maps to input validation and mishandling of user data (CWE‑20, CWE‑184).

Affected Systems

The flaw affects HCL Traveler from HCLSoftware. No specific product versions are listed in the available data.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 3.5 indicates low severity, and the EPSS score is not available. The vulnerability is not listed in CISA’s KEV catalog. The likely attack vector is local; an attacker must be authenticated to the Traveler system in order to request an Apple profile. This limits exploitation to the user’s own device, confining impact to potential information disclosure of their login credentials and the system’s Apple profile content.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Check the current HCL Traveler version and apply any vendor‑released security updates that address Apple profile generation handling.
  • Review and configure the Apple profile generation to avoid reflecting sensitive data unless strictly necessary, ensuring only validated inputs are included.
  • Monitor for abnormal or repeated profile generation requests and set alerts for potential misuse.
