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
An issue exists in all supported versions of IdentityIQ Lifecycle Manager that can result if an entitlement with a value containing leading or trailing whitespace is requested by an authenticated user in an access request.

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

A vulnerability exists in IdentityIQ Lifecycle Manager where entitlement values containing leading or trailing whitespace are not properly validated during access requests. An authenticated user could potentially exploit this to gain unintended access or bypass access control checks by manipulating entitlement values with whitespace characters.

MitigationImplement proper input validation to trim leading and trailing whitespace from entitlement values before processing access requests, and validate that entitlement values match expected patterns without extraneous whitespace.

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 IdentityIQ version
    Locate the IdentityIQ installation directory and check the version file or WAR file name, or query the system information API if available
    Affected if The installed version is 8.1, 8.2, 8.3, or 8.4 exactly
  2. Confirm Lifecycle Manager is active
    Check if the Lifecycle Manager module is enabled in the IdentityIQ configuration or if lifecycle-related workflows are deployed
    Affected if Lifecycle Manager is configured and operational in the environment
  3. Verify entitlement management is in use
    Review access request configurations or entitlement catalog settings to confirm entitlements are defined and can be requested
    Affected if Entitlements are defined and managed through access requests

The environment is affected if IdentityIQ versions 8.1 through 8.4 are installed with Lifecycle Manager enabled and entitlement-based access requests configured.

Generated from the published advisory. Verify against your own configuration.

Check your environment

Paste your version and any relevant configuration and it will be compared against the affected criteria above. Do not include secrets or credentials.

AI-assisted, checked against the advisory. Informational, not a guarantee.

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.
