CWE CWE-319: Cleartext Transmission of Sensitive Information
OWASP A03:2017 - Sensitive Data Exposure
Confidence Level Medium
Impact Level Medium
Likelihood Level Medium

Description

The App Service is configured to accept both HTTP and HTTPS connections, rather than enforcing HTTPS only. This allows unencrypted (HTTP) traffic, exposing sensitive data to interception.

Impact

If exploited, attackers could intercept or tamper with data transmitted over insecure HTTP connections, potentially stealing credentials or other sensitive information. This undermines data confidentiality and may lead to compliance violations or user trust issues.
