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 the installed ADAudit Plus version
    Access the product's About or Help section in the web interface, or check the version file in the installation directory (commonly named version.txt or build.info)
    Affected if The installed version is lower than 7271, or exactly version 7.2 (meaning build numbers below 7271)
  2. Confirm the product is ADAudit Plus
    Verify the product name in the application header or license information to ensure you are checking the correct affected product
    Affected if The product is Zoho ManageEngine ADAudit Plus and the version check shows a vulnerable version
  3. Verify access to report functionality
    Check if the aggregate report or reporting features are enabled for user accounts in the product's user management or role configuration section
    Affected if Reporting features are accessible to user accounts and the version is vulnerable
  4. Check for the vulnerable parameter in use
    Review the product's aggregate report feature where data can be filtered or aggregated - the vulnerability exists in unsanitized input parameters passed to this feature
    Affected if The aggregate report data functionality is in use and the version is vulnerable (version < 7271)

A user is affected if their installed ADAudit Plus version is 7.2 or any version lower than 7271, and the aggregate report functionality is accessible to authenticated users.
