Authentication Bypass vulnerability in Hitachi Ops Center Analyzer on Linux, 64 bit (Hitachi Ops Center Analyzer detail view component), Hitachi Infrastructure Analytics Advisor on Linux, 64 bit (Hitachi Data Center Analytics component ).This issue affects Hitachi Ops Center Analyzer: from 10.0.0-00 before 11.0.3-00; Hitachi Infrastructure Analytics Advisor: from 2.1.0-00 through 4.4.0-00.

Technical summary

dbcve analysis · moderate confidence

Authentication bypass vulnerability in Hitachi Ops Center Analyzer (detail view component) and Hitachi Infrastructure Analytics Advisor (Data Center Analytics component) on Linux 64-bit. Allows unauthenticated attackers to bypass authentication mechanisms and gain unauthorized access to affected systems due to improper authentication validation.

MitigationApply vendor patches to reach fixed versions: Hitachi Ops Center Analyzer should be updated to 11.0.3-00 or later; Hitachi Infrastructure Analytics Advisor should be updated to a version beyond 4.4.0-00. Upgrade paths should be tested in non-production environments first.

dbcve checks

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

Identify if Hitachi Ops Center Analyzer is installed

Check for the product installation directory or list installed packages using the system package manager (e.g., rpm -qa, dpkg -l, or check /opt/hitachi common installation paths)

Affected if The product is installed and running on Linux 64-bit
Determine the installed version of Hitachi Ops Center Analyzer

Locate the version information file or execute the product version command (commonly found in installation logs, or via a version info tool in the product bin directory, such as <install_dir>/Analyzer/bin/ Analyzer.sh -version)

Affected if The version is below 11.0.3-00 (e.g., 11.x versions prior to 11.0.3-00)
Identify if Hitachi Infrastructure Analytics Advisor is installed

Check for the product installation directory or list installed packages using the system package manager (e.g., rpm -qa, dpkg -l, or check /opt/hitachi common installation paths)

Affected if The product is installed and running on Linux 64-bit
Determine the installed version of Hitachi Infrastructure Analytics Advisor

Locate the version information file or execute the product version command (commonly found in installation logs, or via a version info tool in the product bin directory, such as <install_dir>/HIAA/bin/ hiac.sh -version)

Affected if The version is at or below 4.4.0-00 (including 4.4.0-00)
Verify the affected components are in use

Check if the detail view component (for Ops Center Analyzer) or Data Center Analytics component (for Infrastructure Analytics Advisor) is enabled and accessible on the network

Affected if These specific web components are exposed and accessible without additional authentication layers

A user is affected if either Hitachi Ops Center Analyzer (version below 11.0.3-00) or Hitachi Infrastructure Analytics Advisor (version 4.4.0-00 or below) is installed on Linux 64-bit with the vulnerable components exposed.

Remediation

dbcve · scoped

Mitigation available No clean upgrade yet — mitigate in the meantime

Mitigation

Apply vendor patches to reach fixed versions: Hitachi Ops Center Analyzer should be updated to 11.0.3-00 or later; Hitachi Infrastructure Analytics Advisor should be updated to a version beyond 4.4.0-00. Upgrade paths should be tested in non-production environments first.

Recommended fix High confidence

Hitachi Ops Center Analyzer: 11.0.3-00 or later; Hitachi Infrastructure Analytics Advisor: latest version beyond 4.4.0-00

1. Identify the specific Hitachi product installed (Ops Center Analyzer detail view component or Infrastructure Analytics Advisor Data Center Analytics component)
2. Determine the current installed version using Hitachi documentation or product management interface
3. For Hitachi Ops Center Analyzer: Upgrade to version 11.0.3-00 or later
4. For Hitachi Infrastructure Analytics Advisor: Upgrade to the latest available version beyond 4.4.0-00
5. After upgrade, verify the authentication mechanism is properly enforced by attempting to access the affected components without credentials
6. Confirm the fix by checking Hitachi vendor security advisories for any additional patch requirements

Caveat Review Hitachi upgrade documentation for potential compatibility issues between major versions; some configuration migration may be required

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.

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.

CVSS breakdown How the score is builtThe industry scoring standard. It rates how the flaw is reached, what it takes to exploit, and what an attacker gains — the score is derived from those, not the other way round.

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.

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.
