CVE-2025-62330
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedHCL DevOps Deploy is susceptible to a cleartext transmission of sensitive information because the HTTP port remains accessible and does not redirect to HTTPS as intended. As a result, an attacker with network access could intercept or modify user credentials and session-related data via passive monitoring or man-in-the-middle attacks.
Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · high confidenceHCL DevOps Deploy exposes an HTTP port that does not automatically redirect to HTTPS, causing user credentials and session data to be transmitted in cleartext. An attacker with network access can intercept this traffic through passive monitoring or man-in-the-middle attacks.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Identify installed HCL DevOps Deploy versionCheck the version file in the installation directory or run the version command for the deployment engine component. Common locations include the 'bin' directory or check product-specific metadata files.Affected if Installed version is >= 8.1.0 and < 8.1.2.4
-
Determine if HTTP listener is enabledReview the server configuration files (typically in conf/ or etc/ directory) for HTTP port bindings. Check for enabled HTTP connectors on common ports such as 8080 or the configured HTTP port.Affected if HTTP port is explicitly enabled and listening without automatic HTTPS redirection configured
-
Verify HTTP to HTTPS redirect configurationInspect the web server or application server configuration for redirect rules or security constraint settings that enforce HTTPS for authentication endpoints.Affected if No redirect rule exists or the HTTP port accepts unauthenticated connections without forcing SSL/TLS upgrade
-
Test cleartext credential transmissionUse a network capture tool on the HTTP port to confirm that authentication requests (POST to login/credential endpoints) are transmitted over unencrypted HTTP.Affected if User credentials or session tokens are observed in plaintext network traffic
-
Check network binding configurationExamine the server binding configuration to determine if HTTP is bound to all interfaces (0.0.0.0) or restricted to localhost only.Affected if HTTP port is accessible from network interfaces other than localhost
User is affected if HCL DevOps Deploy version is between 8.1.0 and 8.1.2.4 AND the HTTP port is enabled and accessible without HTTPS redirection enforced.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
dbcve · scoped8.1.2.4
Configure the HTTP port to enforce HTTPS redirection or disable plain HTTP access entirely to prevent cleartext transmission of sensitive authentication data.
8.1.2.4 or later
- Review the HCL DevOps Deploy 8.1.2.4 release notes and upgrade documentation at support.hcl-software.com for any prerequisites or migration requirements
- Ensure you have a complete backup of the current installation including the database and configuration files
- Schedule a maintenance window as the upgrade will require downtime
- Download HCL DevOps Deploy version 8.1.2.4 or later from the HCL Software download portal
- Stop the HCL DevOps Deploy services on all nodes in the deployment
- Run the installer for version 8.1.2.4 following the official upgrade instructions
- After installation, verify the HTTP port is now properly redirecting to HTTPS
- Test that user credentials and sessions are only transmitted over HTTPS
