CVE-2024-22395
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 access control vulnerability has been identified in the SMA100 SSL-VPN virtual office portal, which in specific conditions could potentially enable a remote authenticated attacker to associate another user's MFA mobile application.
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 confidenceImproper access control in the SMA100 SSL-VPN virtual office portal allows an authenticated attacker to associate another user's MFA mobile application with their account, potentially enabling session hijacking or unauthorized VPN access through mismatched MFA credentials.

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 SMA device modelAccess the SMA web management console or check the device label to determine if the model is SMA 200, SMA 210, SMA 400, SMA 410, or SMA 500v. This vulnerability only affects these specific models.Affected if The device is NOT one of these models: SMA 200, SMA 210, SMA 400, SMA 410, or SMA 500v.
-
Check the installed firmware versionLog into the SMA web interface and navigate to System > Status or use the CLI command 'fw ver' to retrieve the current firmware version. Compare it to the fixed version 10.2.1.11-65sv.Affected if The firmware version is lower than 10.2.1.11-65sv.
-
Verify if MFA is configured on the deviceLog into the SMA web interface and navigate to Users > Settings or Authentication > Multi-Factor Authentication to check if any MFA methods (such as mobile app, SMS, or hardware token) have been enabled for user accounts.Affected if MFA is NOT enabled or configured for any users on the device.
-
Confirm virtual office portal accessibilityAttempt to access the SMA SSL-VPN virtual office portal URL (typically port 4433 or 443) to verify the web interface is reachable and functional.Affected if The virtual office portal is not accessible or not in use.
The device is affected if it is an SMA 200, 210, 400, 410, or 500v running firmware below 10.2.1.11-65sv with MFA configured and the virtual office portal enabled.

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 · scoped10.2.1.11-65sv
Apply the vendor-supplied patch or firmware update for SMA100 series devices to enforce proper authorization checks when configuring MFA associations, preventing users from modifying other users' MFA settings.
10.2.1.11-65sv or later
- 1. Identify the specific SMA device model (200, 210, 400, 410, or 500v) in your environment
- 2. Access the SMA device management interface or CLI
- 3. Navigate to the firmware update section
- 4. Download the firmware version 10.2.1.11-65sv or later from the official SonicWall support portal (support.sonicwall.com)
- 5. Upload and apply the firmware update to the SMA device
- 6. After upgrade, verify the device is operational and test MFA functionality
- 7. Confirm the running firmware version is 10.2.1.11-65sv or higher
