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 · unedited
WALLIX Bastion 9.x before 9.0.9 and 10.x before 10.0.5 allows unauthenticated access to sensitive information by bypassing access control on a network access administration web interface.

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 confidence

WALLIX Bastion versions 9.x before 9.0.9 and 10.x before 10.0.5 contain an access control bypass vulnerability in the network access administration web interface, allowing unauthenticated attackers to bypass authentication and access sensitive information without 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 checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Identify WALLIX Bastion installation and version
    Check the installed version by examining the product's about page, running 'wabctl --version' or 'wabadm --version' command line tools, or reviewing /opt/wallix/bastion/etc/version file if accessible
    Affected if Version is less than 9.0.9 or between 10.0.0 and 10.0.4 (inclusive)
  2. Confirm network access administration web interface is enabled
    Verify if the network access administration web interface is accessible. This is typically exposed on port 443 or 8443 via HTTPS. Check for the presence of /admin/network/ or similar admin endpoints
    Affected if The web administration interface is exposed and accessible without authentication
  3. Verify authentication is required for admin endpoints
    Attempt to access the network access administration interface directly without credentials. Try accessing common admin paths such as /admin/network/access/ or /api/v1/admin/network
    Affected if Authentication is not enforced and sensitive information or admin functions are accessible without credentials

You are affected if WALLIX Bastion version is below 9.0.9 or between 10.0.0 and 10.0.4, and the network access administration web interface is accessible without authentication.
