CVE-2024-22216
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 · uneditedIn default installations of Microchip maxView Storage Manager (for Adaptec Smart Storage Controllers) where Redfish server is configured for remote system management, unauthorized access can occur, with data modification and information disclosure. This affects 3.00.23484 through 4.14.00.26064 (except for the patched versions 3.07.23980 and 4.07.00.25339).
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 · high confidenceThis is an authorization bypass vulnerability in the Redfish server component of Microchip maxView Storage Manager. In default installations where Redfish is enabled for remote system management, unauthenticated attackers can gain unauthorized access to modify storage configuration data and read sensitive system information.

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 if maxView Storage Manager is installedLocate the maxView installation directory or check installed programs list for 'Microchip maxView Storage Manager' or 'maxView'Affected if The software is not present on the system, the vulnerability does not apply
-
Determine the installed version of maxView Storage ManagerCheck the version information in the installation directory, program properties, or use the maxView utility command to query the versionAffected if The installed version falls outside the range 3.00.23484 to 4.14.00.26064, the vulnerability does not apply
-
Verify if Redfish service is enabledCheck the maxView configuration settings or service status to determine whether the Redfish interface is turned on for remote system managementAffected if Redfish is disabled or not configured, the vulnerability cannot be exploited
-
Check Redfish network accessibilityInspect network configuration, firewall rules, or service bindings to determine if the Redfish service port (typically 5000 or 8443) is exposed to the networkAffected if Redfish is only accessible from localhost or a trusted internal network, the exploitability is significantly reduced
A user is affected if maxView Storage Manager is installed with a version between 3.00.23484 and 4.14.00.26064 AND the Redfish service is enabled and accessible to potential attackers.

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.
dbcve · scopedUpdate maxView Storage Manager to patched versions 3.07.23980 or 4.07.00.25339. If immediate patching is not possible, restrict network access to the Redfish interface using firewalls or access controls.
Version 3.07.23980 or later for 3.x branch; Version 4.07.00.25339 or later for 4.x branch
- 1. Identify the current installed version of MaxView Storage Manager
- 2. For version 3.x branch: upgrade to version 3.07.23980 or later
- 3. For version 4.x branch: upgrade to version 4.07.00.25339 or later
- 4. After upgrade, verify the Redfish server configuration to ensure proper access controls are in place
- 5. Test that remote system management functionality works correctly post-upgrade
