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
Dell EMC Streaming Data Platform, versions prior to 1.3 contain an SSL Strip Vulnerability in the User Interface (UI). A remote unauthenticated attacker could potentially exploit this vulnerability, leading to a downgrade in the communications between the client and server into an unencrypted format.

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

Dell EMC Streaming Data Platform versions prior to 1.3 contain an SSL stripping vulnerability in the User Interface. A remote unauthenticated attacker can potentially downgrade HTTPS connections to unencrypted HTTP, allowing interception of sensitive data transmitted between the client and server.

MitigationUpgrade to Dell EMC Streaming Data Platform version 1.3 or later which contains the fix for this SSL stripping vulnerability.

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. Confirm Dell EMC Streaming Data Platform is installed
    Identify if Dell EMC Streaming Data Platform is deployed in your environment. Check installed software listings, container images, or consult your infrastructure documentation for presence of this product.
    Affected if The product is present in your environment
  2. Check the installed version number
    Use the product's admin console, CLI tools, or check the version metadata of the installed package to determine the exact version of Dell EMC Streaming Data Platform.
    Affected if The version is below 1.3 (for example, 1.2.x, 1.1.x, 1.0.x)
  3. Verify if the UI is accessible via HTTP
    Attempt to access the user interface over HTTP (port 80) or check the server configuration to see if HTTP connections are accepted on the UI service.
    Affected if HTTP is enabled and the UI accepts unencrypted connections, making SSL stripping possible
  4. Check for HSTS header on the UI
    Inspect the HTTP response headers from the UI server using a browser developer tool or curl command to see if the Strict-Transport-Security header is present and properly configured.
    Affected if HSTS header is missing or not set, allowing the HTTPS to HTTP downgrade

Your environment is affected if Dell EMC Streaming Data Platform is installed with a version prior to 1.3 and the UI accepts HTTP connections without proper HSTS protection.
