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 · unedited
Unify OpenStage / OpenScape Desk Phone IP before V3 R3.11.0 SIP has an OS command injection vulnerability in the web based management interface

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 · moderate confidence

Unify OpenStage and OpenScape Desk Phone IP devices running firmware versions before V3 R3.11.0 contain an OS command injection vulnerability in the web-based management interface. An unauthenticated remote attacker could inject and execute arbitrary operating system commands by sending specially crafted requests to the web management interface, potentially gaining full control over the affected device.

MitigationUpdate affected phone firmware to version V3 R3.11.0 or later. If immediate patching is not possible, restrict network access to the web management interface by placing phones in a separate VLAN or behind a firewall to limit exposure.

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 checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Identify the phone model
    Locate the device label or check the web management interface login page for the model name (OpenStage 20, 20E, 40, 40G, 60, 60G, 80, or 80G)
    Affected if The device is any of these OpenStage models from the V3 firmware line
  2. Check the installed firmware version
    Access the phone web interface or check the device administration menu for the firmware version information; compare it against the affected range (V3 R3.11.0 and later are fixed, earlier versions are vulnerable)
    Affected if The firmware version is V3 with a release prior to R3.11.0 (for example, V3 R2.x or earlier)
  3. Confirm the web management interface is enabled
    Attempt to access the device web interface by entering the phone IP address in a browser; if a login or management page loads, the interface is active
    Affected if The web-based management interface is accessible on the network (the vulnerability is exploitable only when this interface is enabled)

You are affected if you have an OpenStage phone running firmware V3 R3.10.x or earlier AND the web management interface is enabled and reachable on your network.

Mitigation available No clean upgrade yet — mitigate in the meantime
Mitigation

Update affected phone firmware to version V3 R3.11.0 or later. If immediate patching is not possible, restrict network access to the web management interface by placing phones in a separate VLAN or behind a firewall to limit exposure.

Recommended fix Moderate confidence

V3 R3.11.0 SIP

  1. Access the phone's web-based management interface by entering the device's IP address in a web browser
  2. Navigate to the Administration or Settings section of the web interface
  3. Locate the Firmware or Software Update option
  4. Check current firmware version to confirm it is below V3 R3.11.0
  5. Download the V3 R3.11.0 SIP firmware update from the official Unify/Siemens support portal (assets.yourcircuit.com or networks.unify.com)
  6. In the web interface, use the firmware upload/update function to apply the V3 R3.11.0 SIP firmware file
  7. Wait for the firmware upload to complete and for the device to reboot
  8. After reboot, verify the new firmware version is V3 R3.11.0 or later in the web interface
Caveat Standard firmware upgrade - ensure backup of configuration if available; phone may briefly reboot during update
