CVE-2024-10718 is a high-severity Sensitive Cookie in HTTPS Session Without 'Secure' Attribute (CWE-614) vulnerability in Phpipam Phpipam. Its CVSS base score is 7.5 (High).
Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Network Sniffing (T1040); ranked at the 24th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog; a public proof-of-concept is referenced.
The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to SC-8 (Transmission Confidentiality and Integrity) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Synthesised by an AI model from the NVD description and linked references — a reading aid, not an authoritative source.
CVE-2024-10718 is a vulnerability in phpipam/phpipam version 1.5.1, an open-source IP address management application. The issue arises because the Secure attribute is not set on sensitive cookies during HTTPS sessions, which can lead user agents to transmit those cookies in plaintext over HTTP connections, potentially exposing sensitive information. This flaw corresponds to CWE-614 (Sensitive Cookie in HTTPS Session Without 'Secure' Attribute) and CWE-319 (Cleartext Transmission of Sensitive Information), with a CVSS v3.1 base score of 7.5 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N).
The vulnerability can be exploited by any network attacker with low complexity and no privileges or user interaction required. An adversary positioned to observe traffic could capture sensitive cookies if a victim's browser downgrades to an HTTP session, such as through interception on unsecured networks. Successful exploitation enables high-impact confidentiality violations by disclosing cookie contents, which may include session tokens or other sensitive data.
Mitigation is provided in phpipam/phpipam version 1.7.0, where the Secure attribute is properly implemented, as detailed in the fix commit at https://github.com/phpipam/phpipam/commit/ddf70ef6801442eb8b0be5eea829e470e653c70e. Security practitioners should upgrade affected installations to version 1.7.0 or later.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI
SC-8 directly requires protecting confidentiality of transmitted information, which structurally eliminates cleartext transmission of sensitive data.

Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→CSF cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.
Encryption of data-in-transit directly prevents cleartext transmission while the control also addresses integrity and availability.
Enforcing hardened configuration baselines includes requiring the Secure flag on sensitive cookies.
Secure SDLC practices explicitly require correct use of security attributes such as the cookie Secure flag.
Mitigating Controls (ISO/IEC 27001:2022 Annex A) AI
Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→ISO cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.
Specifying encryption and other security technology for network services prevents transmission of sensitive information in cleartext over potentially untrusted channels.
Mandating cryptographic protection and stronger authentication on public networks stops the transmission of plaintext sensitive information.
Specifying communications-security requirements and secure remote-access methods (including encryption expectations) prevents the transmission of sensitive data in cleartext over home or public networks.
Armoured conduits, electromagnetic shielding and locked enclosures make passive eavesdropping on unencrypted traffic traversing the cables more difficult, mitigating exposure of sensitive data in transit.
Use of cryptography control mandates encryption in transit, which HTTPS provides, but does not specifically require the Secure cookie attribute.
Application security requirements can include cookie security settings, but the control is broader and does not explicitly mandate the Secure attribute.
