Vulnerability Data

In Red Hat Advanced Cluster Security (RHACS), it was found that some security related HTTP headers were missing, allowing an attacker to exploit this with a clickjacking attack. An attacker could exploit this by convincing a valid RHACS user to…

PR.PS-06 mostly match
prevents

Secure SDLC practices directly require implementing frame-ancestors / X-Frame-Options controls that prevent this weakness.

detects

Security testing can detect missing frame protections, but does not itself implement the control.

degrades

Web filtering can block or sandbox untrusted frames, but does not enforce application-level frame-busting or CSP.

prevents

Application security requirements can mandate frame-ancestors / X-Frame-Options, directly addressing UI redressing risks.

prevents

Secure architecture principles include isolation of UI layers and proper use of browser security controls.

prevents

Secure coding practices directly require implementation of frame-busting headers or CSP frame-ancestors directives.
