ArticaTech Artica ProxyVulnerabilityCVSS 7.5

Artica Proxy before 4.50.000000 Service Pack 7 (fixed in hotfix 20260724-02) contains a session fixation vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to hijack administrative sessions by setting a known PHPSESSID on a victim's browser prior to authentication. Attackers can pre-set a controlled session identifier and wait for a victim to authenticate through fw.login.php, after which the attacker gains a fully authenticated administrative session on port 9000.

No public exploitation has been reported so far. No distribution fix is listed yet; apply vendor mitigations and monitor.

No affected package in the tracked watchlist yet (Debian, Ubuntu, Arch, SUSE, Red Hat...). Triage may still be pending.
