CVE-2026-35141 — HCL DFXAnalytics is affected by a Login Replay Attack vulnerability

HCL DFXAnalytics is affected by a Login Replay Attack vulnerability. The application allows a remote attacker to intercept, delay, or fraudulently retransmit valid authentication data to achieve unauthorized access. To mitigate this risk, the application must implement a mechanism to include timestamps with every message, ensuring that messages exceeding a specific age threshold are automatically rejected by the recipient system.

Low

Who exploits it and how urgent it is

A 0–100 score combining confirmed exploitation, ransomware and APT use, public exploits, EPSS and severity.

No exploitation signal in the sources consulted so far.

How the score was calculated

Technical severity (medium)+3

The score orders the patch queue; it does not replace your asset context (internet exposure, criticality, compensating controls).

Triage

Is it exploited, how likely is exploitation, what does it touch, and how severe do the sources call it.

Exploitation

Not confirmed

Not in CISA KEV — an absence of record, not proof it is unexploited.

EPSS FIRST

Remediation

Fixes and mitigations documented by the sources — linked to the original advisory.

No fix documented by the sources we poll. That does not mean none exists: check the vendor advisory.

First 24 hours

Ordered from the record’s own fields — exposure first, because you cannot patch what you have not found. A rule-generated starting point.

Identify exposed assets running the affected vendor/product/version combinations (HCL Software DFXAnalytics, Hcltech Dfxanalytics).
The attack is network-based and needs no privileges: restrict exposure (ACLs, VPN, WAF) until patched.
No fix documented in the sources: reduce exposure and monitor the vendor advisory.
Search available logs for exploit probes matching the vulnerability class (authentication), errors and authentication anomalies.
