CVE-2026-35106 · Severity: medium · CVSS 4.7 · Published 2026-11-06

HCL AION's GenAI web interface contains an open redirect vulnerability in its session handling that could be exploited for phishing attacks. An attacker can craft a malicious link that redirects users to an external website after they authenticate, potentially stealing credentials or delivering malware. This occurs because the application trusts a URL configuration value without validating the redirect destination.
