The bookmarklet pop-up in the Bookmarks component in IBM Lotus Connections 2.5.x before 2.5.0.2 does not properly follow the "force SSL" setting, which might make it easier for remote attackers to obtain the cleartext of network communication by sniffing the network, or spoof arbitrary servers via a man-in-the-middle attack.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2010-2278 is an IBM Lotus Connections Bookmarks issue where a bookmarklet pop-up may ignore the configured “force SSL” setting. Users could believe traffic is protected while some communication may occur in cleartext, exposing content to network sniffing or man-in-the-middle spoofing. Exposure is most likely in legacy IBM Lotus Connections 2.5.x deployments using the Bookmarks bookmarklet and relying on forced SSL. Internet exposure is not required; risk exists wherever an attacker can observe or alter user network traffic. Treat this as a legacy exposure cleanup item unless affected systems still support sensitive workflows. Prioritize remediation if users access Bookmarks over shared, wireless, partner, or untrusted networks. Mitigation focus: Upgrade IBM Lotus Connections to 2.5.0.2 or later per IBM guidance.; Review IBM advisory pages for the applicable APARs and fix packs.; Disable or restrict the Bookmarks bookmarklet if upgrade timing is uncertain..
