CVE-2012-4846: Infoleak
First published: Wed Dec 19 2012(Updated: )
IBM Lotus Notes 8.5.x before 8.5.3 FP3 does not include the HTTPOnly flag in a Set-Cookie header for a web-application cookie, which makes it easier for remote attackers to obtain potentially sensitive information via script access to this cookie, aka SPRs JMAS7TRNLN and SRAO8U3Q68.
