ANALYSIS AND REMEDIATION

Acknowledgment and Analysis of a Vulnerability Report

If you submitted a vulnerability report via PSIRT@hcl.com, HCLSoftware Product Security will acknowledge the receipt of the report within 2 business days. A tracking number will be provided in the acknowledgment email. Please include this tracking number in the subject of all further email communications relating to the submission.

Vulnerability Remediation

For all validated security vulnerabilities affecting HCLSoftware products and services that are in active support, HCLSoftware will provide a fix or workaround. A Security Bulletin describing the fix or workaround will be posted in the Knowledge Base on the HCL Customer Support portal.

Severity Rating

HCLSoftware uses version 3.1 of the Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) as part of its standard process of evaluating reported potential vulnerabilities in HCLSoftware products. The CVSS model uses three distinct measurements or scores that include Base, Temporal, and Environmental calculations.

HCLSoftware will provide an evaluation of the base vulnerability score, and in some instances, will provide a temporal vulnerability score. End users are encouraged to compute the environmental score based on their network parameters. The combination of all three scores should be considered the final score, which represents a moment in time and is tailored to a specific environment. Organizations are advised to use this final score to prioritize responses in their own environments.
