Technical details
HCL IntelliOps Event Management (IEM) version 1.1 fails to implement the X-Frame-Options or Content-Security-Policy (frame-ancestors) HTTP response headers. This protection mechanism failure (CWE-693) allows the application's web interface to be rendered within an <iframe> on a third-party, attacker-controlled domain. By using transparent overlays, an attacker can conduct a clickjacking attack, inducing a logged-in user to click on UI elements they did not intend to, potentially leading to unauthorized configuration changes or state modifications. The attack requires the victim to be authenticated to IEM and to interact with a malicious webpage.
