Summary
The console in Puppet Enterprise 3.7.x, 3.8.x, and 2015.2.x does not set the secure flag for the JSESSIONID cookie in an HTTPS session, which makes it easier for remote attackers to capture this cookie by intercepting its transmission within an HTTP session.
Exploit prediction
1.62% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days, higher than 76% of all scored CVEs (FIRST EPSS, 2026-11-09).
