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

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.

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. Check FusionSphere OpenStack version
    Run the version check command in the FusionSphere management interface or examine the system version file in the installation directory
    Affected if Installed version equals V100R006C00SPC102 (NFV)
  2. Identify the affected network port
    Consult FusionSphere documentation or examine network listener configurations to identify the port associated with the component lacking input validation
    Affected if The vulnerable port is listening and accessible on the system
  3. Verify local authentication is enabled
    Check system authentication settings and user access controls for local user accounts
    Affected if Local authentication is permitted for untrusted or non-administrative users
  4. Confirm the vulnerable service is running
    Use netstat or ss to list listening processes and identify the service bound to the affected port
    Affected if The vulnerable service process is running and bound to the network

Environment is affected only if running exactly version V100R006C00SPC102 (NFV) with the vulnerable network service enabled and accessible to authenticated local users.
