CVE-2024-10445
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 · uneditedImproper certificate validation vulnerability in the update functionality in Synology BeeStation OS (BSM) before 1.1-65374 and Synology DiskStation Manager (DSM) before 6.2.4-25556-8, 7.1.1-42962-7, 7.2-64570-4, 7.2.1-69057-6 and 7.2.2-72806-1 allow remote attackers to write limited files via unspecified vectors.
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 confidenceImproper certificate validation in the update functionality of Synology BeeStation OS and DiskStation Manager allows remote attackers to write limited files via unspecified vectors. The vulnerability stems from the system not properly validating certificates during the update process, potentially enabling man-in-the-middle attacks to inject malicious content.

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 Synology product typeAccess the web interface. For BeeStation, visit the local IP or bee.synology.com. For DiskStation Manager, access via the device IP on port 5000/5001. Note which product interface loads.Affected if The product is either Synology BeeStation OS or Synology DiskStation Manager (DSM)
-
Check BeeStation OS versionIf using BeeStation, log into the web interface and navigate to Settings > About, or check the version displayed on the main dashboard. Note the exact version number.Affected if The installed version is 1.0, 1.0.1, 1.0.2, or 1.1 (any version before 1.1-65374)
-
Check DSM versionIf using DSM, open Control Panel > System > System Status > DSM Update, or run `cat /etc/VERSION` via SSH. Note the full version string including build number.Affected if The installed version falls within: 6.2 to 6.2.4-25556-7; 7.2 to 7.2-64570-3; 7.2.1-69057 to 7.2.1-69057-5; or 7.2.2 to 7.2.2-72806-0
-
Verify update functionality is accessibleConfirm the system has not disabled update checking. Navigate to Control Panel > Update & Restore (DSM) or Settings > Updates (BeeStation) and verify the update check feature is available and not grayed out or administratively disabled.Affected if Update functionality is enabled and the system can check for or receive updates
-
Check for automatic update configurationIn DSM, go to Control Panel > Update & Restore > DSM Update Settings. In BeeStation, check Settings > Updates. Note whether automatic update checks are enabled.Affected if Automatic update checks are enabled, making the certificate validation vulnerability reachable during update attempts
You are affected if you are running any BeeStation OS version 1.0 through 1.1, or any DSM version within the affected ranges listed, and the update feature is accessible on your system.
Generated from the published advisory. Verify against your own configuration.
