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
Cross-site scripting (XSS) in Zoho ManageEngine EventLog Analyzer before 11.12 Build 11120 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via unspecified 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 confidence

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Zoho ManageEngine EventLog Analyzer versions prior to 11.12 Build 11120 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML. The CVSS 6.1 score indicates a reflected XSS vulnerability with user interaction required and no privileges needed.

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 installed EventLog Analyzer version
    Access the product's web interface and navigate to the 'About' or 'Version' section in the admin console, or check the product's build information file if accessible on the server filesystem
    Affected if The installed version displays as a release prior to 11.12 or the build number is below 11120
  2. Confirm the exact build number
    Locate the precise build number in the product's system information, release notes, or version details within the admin interface
    Affected if The build number is lower than 11120 regardless of the major version display
  3. Verify the web interface is accessible
    Test connectivity to the EventLog Analyzer web interface over HTTP or HTTPS from a browser
    Affected if The web interface is reachable and accepts user input, which is required for reflected XSS exploitation

You are affected if your installed EventLog Analyzer version is prior to 11.12 Build 11120 and the web interface is accessible to users or attackers.
