CVE-2015-5505

Status: ModifiedMedium (6.8)—

The HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) module 6.x-1.x before 6.x-1.1 and 7.x-1.x before 7.x-1.2 for Drupal does not properly implement the "include subdomains" directive, which causes the HSTS policy to not be applied to subdomains and allows man-in-the-middle attackers to have unspecified impact via unknown vectors.

CVSS

Exploitation probability (EPSS)

EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).
