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

Description

The web app is not configured to enforce HTTPS, allowing users to access it over unencrypted HTTP. This can expose sensitive data in transit to interception or tampering.

Impact

If exploited, attackers could intercept or modify data sent between users and the app, potentially stealing credentials, session tokens, or other confidential information. This puts user privacy and application security at risk, and may violate compliance requirements.
