## Summary

HCL AION is affected by a missing-encryption flaw in a second WebSocket connection in its GenAI web interface, which uses unencrypted ws:// instead of encrypted wss://. An attacker can remotely, without logging in, intercept or read data sent over that connection, though the bug is hard to exploit.

## Affected

- HCL Software HCL AION: V 2.6.0

## Description

HCL AION is affected by a missing encryption vulnerability in a second WebSocket connection defined in the GenAI web interface. The connection used the unencrypted WebSocket protocol (ws://test) instead of an encrypted (wss://) channel. This may allow data exchanged over the connection to be intercepted or read by an attacker on the network, potentially resulting in unintended behavior or security impact under certain conditions.
