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 JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Orchestrator installationLocate the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Orchestrator installation directory or check system services for Orchestrator components. Common paths include the JD Edwards home directory under 'oa_server' or 'iot' subdirectories.Affected if Orchestrator software is present on the system
-
Determine the installed Orchestrator versionCheck the Orchestrator version information. This is typically available in the installer, deployment configuration, or about/version page of the Orchestrator admin console. Look for a version file or use the Orchestrator's built-in version command if available.Affected if The installed version is lower than 9.2.8.3
-
Verify the E1 IOT Orchestrator Security component is in useConfirm whether the E1 IOT Orchestrator Security component is deployed and active. This component handles security-related orchestration workflows. Check the Orchestrator's component list or deployed modules.Affected if The E1 IOT Orchestrator Security component is deployed and enabled
-
Assess network exposure of HTTP interfaceDetermine if the Orchestrator HTTP endpoints are accessible from the network. Review firewall rules, reverse proxy configurations, and network ACLs that expose the Orchestrator ports (typically port 8080 or 8443 for HTTP/HTTPS).Affected if The Orchestrator HTTP interface is reachable from untrusted networks
The environment is affected if JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Orchestrator with version lower than 9.2.8.3 is installed, the E1 IOT Orchestrator Security component is active, and the HTTP interface is network-accessible to low-privileged users.
