Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Novell eDirectory version 8.8.5

Description The issue concerns the dhost web service, which uses a predictable session cookie. This predictability makes it easier for remote attackers to hijack sessions by modifying the cookie.

Recommendations For Novell eDirectory version 8.8.5, consider regenerating session cookies with a more secure, unpredictable algorithm to prevent session hijacking. As a temporary workaround, restrict access to the dhost web service to minimize the risk of exploitation.
