Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions HCL Notes versions 9 through 11

Description The issue is related to an information leakage vulnerability through the support for the 'mailto' protocol. This could result in files from the user's filesystem or connected network filesystems being leaked to a third party.

Recommendations For versions 9 through 11, consider disabling the 'mailto' protocol support as a temporary workaround until a patch is available. Restrict access to sensitive files on the user's filesystem and connected network filesystems to minimize the risk of exploitation. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
