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. Check Remote Desktop Manager version
    Open Remote Desktop Manager and go to Help > About, or check the installed version via the Windows Programs and Features list
    Affected if The installed version is earlier than 2022.3.1.6 (or the version shown is < 2022.3.1.6)
  2. Verify PowerShell Module usage
    Check if the Remote Desktop Manager PowerShell Module (likely named 'RemoteDesktopManager.PowerShellModule' or similar) is installed by running 'Get-Module -ListAvailable' in PowerShell
    Affected if The PowerShell Module is installed and the main application version is vulnerable
  3. Confirm Hub Business submodule is in use
    Check if entries from a Hub Business vault are being managed. Look for connections or entries tagged as Hub Business type within Remote Desktop Manager
    Affected if You are using Hub Business entries (not local or other vault types)
  4. Inspect edited entries for retained sensitive data
    For any entries that were previously edited using the entry edit feature in the Hub Business submodule, examine the raw entry data or XML/JSON export to see if sensitive fields (passwords, credentials, API keys) that were supposedly removed during edit still exist
    Affected if Edited Hub Business entries contain sensitive data that should have been cleared during the edit operation

You are affected if Remote Desktop Manager version is before 2022.3.1.6 AND you use the Hub Business submodule PowerShell Module with entries that have been edited (where sensitive data may have been retained improperly).
