CVE-2024-37865
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 · uneditedAn issue in S3Browser v.11.4.5 and v.10.9.9 and fixed in v.11.5.7 allows a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information via the S3 compatible storage component.
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 confidenceS3Browser versions 10.9.9 and 11.4.5 contain a vulnerability in their S3 compatible storage interaction component that allows remote unauthenticated attackers to obtain sensitive information. The specific weakness allows exposure of data that should remain protected during S3 storage operations.

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.
-
Verify S3Browser is installedCheck for S3Browser installation in Program Files folder (C:\Program Files\S3Browser) or look for S3Browser in the Windows Start Menu. Also check Add/Remove Programs or Apps & Features in Windows Settings.Affected if S3Browser is present on the system
-
Determine installed S3Browser versionOpen S3Browser and navigate to Help > About, or check the version in the application's title bar. Alternatively, check the executable properties by right-clicking S3Browser.exe and viewing Details.Affected if The displayed version is less than 11.7.5
-
Confirm S3 storage operations are in useCheck if S3Browser has active account connections configured. Open S3Browser and look at the Accounts list in the main window to see if any S3-compatible storage accounts are connected.Affected if S3Browser has one or more S3 accounts configured and is used for storage operations
If S3Browser version 11.7.5 or higher is installed, the environment is not affected; otherwise, if a version below 11.7.5 is in use with active S3 accounts, the vulnerability applies.
