CVE-2023-4326
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 · uneditedBroadcom RAID Controller web interface is vulnerable has an insecure default TLS configuration that supports obsolete SHA1-based ciphersuites
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 · high confidenceThe Broadcom RAID Controller web interface has an insecure default TLS configuration that supports obsolete SHA1-based ciphersuites, which are cryptographically weak and vulnerable to collision attacks, allowing potential man-in-the-middle attackers to compromise encrypted sessions.

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 the Broadcom RAID Controller Web Interface installationLocate the Broadcom RAID Controller web interface component on the system. This is typically accessed via a web browser to the controller's management IP, or through the server's management interface (like iDRAC, ILO, or similar). Check system inventory or installed software lists for 'Broadcom' or 'RAID Controller' web management components.Affected if The web interface component is not found on the system (not affected)
-
Verify the installed versionAccess the RAID controller's web interface login page or the management console's 'About' or 'System Information' section. Look for the version number displayed. Common locations include a footer on the login page, a 'Support' or 'Diagnostics' section, or the controller's firmware/BIOS version display.Affected if Version is exactly 51.12.0-2779 (vulnerable version)
-
Confirm the web interface is enabled and accessibleAttempt to reach the RAID controller's web interface via HTTPS (port 443 or the configured management port) from an authorized network. Verify the service is running by checking the controller's management web server status if accessible through CLI or management tools.Affected if Web interface is enabled and responds to HTTPS requests (potentially vulnerable)
-
Inspect TLS configuration for SHA1-based ciphersuitesUse a TLS scanning tool (such as nmap with ssl-enum-ciphers, testssl.sh, or openssl s_client) to connect to the RAID controller's web interface endpoint. Run a ciphersuite enumeration scan to list all supported cipher suites. Look for any ciphersuite strings containing 'SHA1', 'SHA', or 'MD5' in the supported list.Affected if SHA1-based or other weak hash-based ciphersuites (e.g., TLS_RSA_WITH_SHA1, TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_SHA1) appear in the supported ciphers list
-
Check if using default TLS configurationReview the RAID controller's TLS/SSL configuration settings accessible through the web interface management console (under 'Security', 'SSL/TLS Settings', or 'Network Configuration'). Check whether the ciphersuite configuration is set to 'Default' or 'Auto' rather than a manually specified strong cipher list.Affected if Configuration shows default or automatic cipher selection (likely includes vulnerable SHA1 ciphers)
A user is affected if they have the Broadcom RAID Controller Web Interface version 51.12.0-2779 with its web interface enabled and the TLS configuration supports SHA1-based ciphersuites in the default or current cipher list.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
From vendor dataDisable SHA1-based ciphersuites in the RAID controller's TLS configuration and configure the web interface to use only strong, modern cipher suites (e.g., TLS 1.2/1.3 with AES-GCM).
