CVE-2008-3661

Publication date 23 September 2008

Last updated 24 July 2024

Ubuntu priority

Low

Why this priority?

Drupal, probably 5.10 and 6.4, 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.
