CVE-2022-2752
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 · uneditedA vulnerability in the web server of Secomea GateManager allows a local user to impersonate as the previous user under some failed login conditions. This issue affects: Secomea GateManager versions from 9.4 through 9.7.
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 confidenceThe GateManager web server has a session management flaw where a local authenticated user can inherit the session context of a previously logged-in user when certain failed login conditions occur. This allows session impersonation without proper authentication credentials.

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.
-
Identify GateManager installationLocate the Secomea GateManager installation on your system and determine the installed version. This is typically found in the application itself, system information, or installation directories.Affected if GateManager is installed and running version 9.4 through 9.7 inclusive
-
Verify the web server interface is enabledConfirm that the GateManager web server interface is active and accessible. Check if the web service is running and listening on its configured port.Affected if The web interface is enabled and exposed to users or network access
-
Check session management configurationExamine the GateManager session management settings or configuration files for how sessions are handled during authentication attempts. Look for any session reuse or inheritance behavior.Affected if Session management allows reuse of sessions from previous login attempts under failed login conditions
-
Review authentication logsExamine GateManager authentication and session logs for patterns where sessions may have been improperly inherited or reused after failed login attempts.
You are affected if Secomea GateManager version 9.4, 9.5, 9.6, or 9.7 is installed and the web server interface is enabled, as this allows the session impersonation flaw to be exploited.
