Technical description

Missing HTTP headers (X-Frame-Options, Content-Security-Policy) in KNIME

Business Hub before 1.4.0 has left users vulnerable to click

jacking. Clickjacking is an attack that occurs when an attacker uses a

transparent iframe in a window to trick a user into clicking on an

actionable item, such as a button or link, to another server in which

they have an identical webpage. The attacker essentially hijacks the

user activity intended for the original server and sends them to the

other server.
