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.
-
Verify Synology Calendar is installedAccess Synology DSM and open Package Center to confirm Synology Calendar package is installed, or run the command 'pkginfo | grep -i calendar' on the NAS via SSHAffected if Synology Calendar package is not found in Package Center or command returns no results (not affected)
-
Check installed version numberIn Package Center, click on Synology Calendar and view the version information, or run 'cat /var/packages/SynologyCalendar/conf' or check the package info via 'pkginfo -i synocalendar' if availableAffected if Version displayed is lower than 2.3.4-0631 (for example, 2.3.3-0590 or earlier)
-
Confirm webapi component is accessibleCheck if the webapi endpoint is exposed by accessing your Synology Calendar URL (typically at /calendar/ or /api/caldav/) via the web browser while logged in as an administratorAffected if Web interface is accessible and functional, indicating the webapi component is active
-
Determine if remote network access is enabledReview Synology DSM network settings and Calendar application settings to confirm whether remote access to the calendar interface is permitted from external networksAffected if Remote access is enabled and Calendar is accessible from outside the local network, increasing the attack surface for CSRF
A user is affected if Synology Calendar is installed with a version prior to 2.3.4-0631 and the webapi component is accessible to authenticated users, including potentially remote users.
