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 Hitachi Ops Center Common Services installationLocate the product installation directory or check for installed RPM/Deb packages related to Hitachi Ops Center Common Services using package manager queries (e.g., rpm -qa | grep -i opscenter or dpkg -l | grep -i opscenter)Affected if The product is installed on the Linux system
-
Determine installed versionQuery the installed package version using the package manager (e.g., rpm -q <package_name> or dpkg -s <package_name>) or check version information in the product installation directoryAffected if The version returned is lower than 10.9.3-00 or cannot be determined as 10.9.3-00 or later
-
Verify product components are runningCheck for running processes related to Hitachi Ops Center Common Services using commands like ps aux | grep -i opscenter or by checking systemd services (systemctl list-units | grep -i opscenter)Affected if The product services are active on the system
