CVE-2018-0025 is a medium-severity vulnerability rated 6.1/10 on the CVSS scale. When an SRX Series device is configured to use HTTP/HTTPS pass-through authentication services, a client sending authentication credentials in the initial HTTP/HTTPS session is at risk that these credentials may be captured during follow-on HTTP/HTTPS requests by a malicious actor through a man-in-the-middle attack or by authentic servers subverted by malicious actors. FTP, and Telnet pass-through authentication services are not affected. EPSS estimates a 1.43% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
