CVE-2016-2300
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 · uneditedEcava IntegraXor before 5.0 build 4522 allows remote attackers to bypass authentication and access unspecified web pages via unknown vectors.
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 confidenceEcava IntegraXor SCADA software versions prior to 5.0 build 4522 contains an authentication bypass vulnerability that allows remote attackers to access unspecified web pages without valid credentials. The exact mechanism is not detailed in available references, but the vulnerability is network-exploitable.
Verify against the referenced sources before acting — the references below are authoritative for this CVE, this summary is not.

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 checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Identify if Ecava IntegraXor is installedCheck for IntegraXor installation directory, typically found in C:\Program Files\Ecava\IntegraXor or C:\IntegraXor, or look for the IntegraXor service in Windows Services (services.msc)Affected if If IntegraXor software is found installed on the system
-
Determine the installed versionOpen the IntegraXor application and check the About or Help section for the version number and build, or look for version info in the installation directory (often in a file like version.txt or in the executable properties)Affected if If the version displayed is 4.2.4502 or lower, or any version prior to 5.0 build 4522
-
Verify the web interface is enabledCheck if the IntegraXor web server is running and accessible. Look for the service in Windows Services or check if TCP port 80, 8080, or the configured web port is listening (use command: netstat -an | findstr LISTENING)Affected if If the web interface port is listening and accessible
-
Confirm the build number from executableRight-click on the IntegraXor executable file (usually IntegraXor.exe in the installation folder), select Properties, and check the File Version or Product Version field for the exact build numberAffected if If the build number in the executable is 4502 or lower
A system is affected if Ecava IntegraXor is installed with version 4.2.4502 or lower and the web interface is exposed on the network.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
From vendor dataUpgrade Ecava IntegraXor to version 5.0 build 4522 or later to remediate this authentication bypass. If immediate patching is not possible, restrict network access to the IntegraXor web interface using firewall rules or network segmentation.
