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
In ONAP SO through Dublin, by accessing an applicable port (30234, 30290, 32010, 30270, 30224, 30281, 30254, 30285, and/or 30271), an attacker gains full access to the respective ONAP services without any authentication. All ONAP Operations Manager (OOM) setups are affected.

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

ONAP Service Orchestrator (SO) through Dublin has multiple exposed ports (30234, 30290, 32010, 30270, 30224, 30281, 30254, 30285, 30271) that provide direct, unauthenticated access to sensitive ONAP services. An attacker connecting to these ports gains full administrative control over affected services without any credentials.

MitigationRestrict access to the vulnerable ports via firewall rules or network segmentation, and enable authentication on the exposed ONAP services. If these ports are not required for operations, disable them entirely.

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 ONAP Service Orchestrator installation and version
    Locate the ONAP SO component in your environment and determine its installed version. Check deployment manifests, container images, or running services for version information (e.g., look for version tags like 3.x or 4.x).
    Affected if The installed version falls within >= 3.0.0 and <= 4.0.0
  2. Enumerate listening network ports on ONAP SO hosts
    Use netstat, ss, or similar network tools to list all listening ports on the servers running ONAP SO components. Focus on identifying whether ports 30234, 30290, 32010, 30270, 30224, 30281, 30254, 30285, or 30271 are in a LISTEN state.
    Affected if Any of the nine specific ports (30234, 30290, 32010, 30270, 30224, 30281, 30254, 30285, 30271) are open and listening
  3. Verify port accessibility from untrusted networks
    Determine whether these ports are accessible from network segments that are not trusted or are externally exposed. Check firewall rules, security groups, or network ACLs that govern access to the ONAP SO hosts. Attempt to connect to these ports from an untrusted network location or verify that no firewall rule blocks unauthorized access.
    Affected if The vulnerable ports are reachable from untrusted or external network segments without authentication requirements

You are affected if ONAP SO version 3.0.0 through 4.0.0 is installed AND any of the nine specific ports are exposed and accessible without authentication on your 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 data
Upgrade available Upgrade to a release after 4.0.0
Interim mitigation

Restrict access to the vulnerable ports via firewall rules or network segmentation, and enable authentication on the exposed ONAP services. If these ports are not required for operations, disable them entirely.
