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

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 · moderate confidence

Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in FireEye Malware Analysis (AX) version 9.0.3.936530 allows attackers to inject malicious JavaScript into application URLs. When a legitimate user clicks the crafted link, the JavaScript executes in their browser context, potentially exposing session details and enabling session hijacking.

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 FireEye Malware Analysis version
    Access the system administration interface or check the product's 'About' section to view the installed version number. This is typically found under Help > About or System > Version in the web console.
    Affected if The installed version is exactly 9.0.3.936530
  2. Confirm the product is FireEye Malware Analysis (AX)
    Verify that the installed product is specifically FireEye Malware Analysis (AX), not another FireEye product. Check the product name in the application header or system information page.
    Affected if The product is FireEye Malware Analysis (AX) version 9.0.3.936530
  3. Verify web interface accessibility
    Confirm the web-based management interface is accessible. Attempt to reach the application URL (typically on port 443 or 8443) from a browser or via curl command.
    Affected if The web interface is accessible and the version is 9.0.3.936530 - the XSS could be triggered via crafted URLs

A user is affected only if they have FireEye Malware Analysis (AX) installed and running version exactly 9.0.3.936530 with the web interface accessible.
