Eaton Intelligent Power Protector ≤ 2.00
Raw vector
CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:H/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:NSummary
CVE-2026-22617 is a medium-severity Sensitive Cookie in HTTPS Session Without 'Secure' Attribute (CWE-614) vulnerability in Eaton Intelligent Power Protector. Its CVSS base score is 5.7 (Medium).
Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Steal Web Session Cookie (T1539); ranked at the 7th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.
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-2026-22617 affects Eaton Intelligent Power Protector (IPP) software due to an insecure cookie configuration. This flaw, classified under CWE-614, enables potential interception of cookies by attackers, as rated with a CVSS v3.1 base score of 5.7 (AV:N/AC:H/PR:H/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N).
A network-based attacker with high privileges could exploit this vulnerability through a man-in-the-middle (MITM) attack, requiring high attack complexity and user interaction. Successful exploitation would grant high-impact confidentiality and integrity violations, such as unauthorized access to sensitive session data, but no availability disruption.
Eaton's security bulletin (ETN-VA-2025-1025) confirms the issue has been addressed in the latest version of IPP software, available via the Eaton download center; practitioners should update affected systems promptly to mitigate risks.

V3.3.1
Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI
Requiring confidentiality protection for transmitted information forces use of HTTPS-only cookies via the Secure attribute, eliminating exposure of sensitive session 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.
Setting the Secure attribute is a direct mechanism for protecting sensitive session data in transit over HTTPS.
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.
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.
Secure coding practices directly prevent missing the Secure attribute on sensitive cookies, though the control covers many other coding issues.
Secure authentication control requires protection of session credentials, directly addressed by setting the Secure flag on sensitive cookies.
