CodeIgniter is a PHP full-stack web framework. In versions prior to 4.2.7 setting $secure or $httponly value to true in Config\Cookie is not reflected in set_cookie() or Response::setCookie(). As a result cookie values are erroneously exposed to scripts. It should be noted that this vulnerability does not affect session cookies. Users are advised to upgrade to v4.2.7 or later. Users unable to upgrade are advised to manually construct their cookies either by setting the options in code or by constructing Cookie objects. Examples of each workaround are available in the linked GHSA.
CVE-2022-39284
This low-severity CVE scores 2.6 under NVD CVSS v3. EPSS exploit probability: 0.5%, top 34% of all CVEs by exploit prediction. GitHub Security Advisory data not yet ingested — confidence will rise once GHSA publishes (typical lag: hours to days for open-source ecosystem CVEs; never for infrastructure-only CVEs).
- Lower severity and no public exploit yet
No vendor fix yet — apply a workaround or compensating control (WAF / firewall / segmentation) and watch for a patch.
