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 · high confidence

The vulnerability allows any authenticated user on Huawei Tecal server web UIs to view session IDs of all online users through the Online Users page. This information disclosure could enable session hijacking or user impersonation attacks, as an attacker could capture valid session identifiers and reuse them.

MitigationApply the vendor firmware/software patches for the affected versions. Until patched, implement network segmentation to limit web UI access to trusted administrators only and monitor for anomalous session activity.

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 server model
    Access the server's web UI or use out-of-band management (iLO/iDRAC/BMC) to view the system information. Look for the product name (e.g., Rh1288 V2, Rh2265 V2, Rh2285 V2, Rh2285h V2, Rh2268 V2, Rh2288 V2, Rh2288h V2, Rh2485 V2).
    Affected if The server model is one of these eight Tecal V2 models.
  2. Check the firmware version
    In the web UI, navigate to the firmware or system information page. The version typically appears as v100r002c00spcXXX or similar (e.g., v100r002c00spc107). Record the exact firmware version string.
    Affected if The firmware version matches or is older than the affected versions listed for your model.
  3. Verify the web UI is enabled
    Confirm that the Huawei Tecal web management interface is accessible. Attempt to reach the web UI URL (typically https://<server-ip>/) and verify it loads.
    Affected if The web UI is accessible and running.
  4. Confirm the Online Users page is accessible
    Log into the web UI with any standard user account (not necessarily administrator). Navigate to the Online Users or User Status page. This page is part of the standard user management interface.
    Affected if An authenticated user can access the Online Users page without special administrator privileges.
  5. Inspect for session ID exposure
    On the Online Users page, observe whether session identifiers, session tokens, or session IDs for other logged-in users are displayed. Note the format and whether multiple users' sessions are visible.
    Affected if Session IDs of other online users are visible on this page.

You are affected if you are running one of the eight listed Tecal V2 server models with firmware at or below the specified version AND the web UI is accessible to authenticated users who can view the Online Users page.
