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 infinite loop in Ivanti Avalanche before 6.4.6 allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to cause a denial of service.

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

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. Verify Ivanti Avalanche is installed
    Check your systems for the presence of Ivanti Avalanche software. This may be found in installed programs list, application directories, or running services on Windows or Linux systems where the product was deployed.
    Affected if Ivanti Avalanche software is present on the system
  2. Identify the installed version of Ivanti Avalanche
    Locate the version information for Ivanti Avalanche. This is typically accessible through the product's web interface under Help or About sections, or via command-line tools if available in your installation. Check product documentation for version lookup specific to your deployment.
    Affected if The version returned is lower than 6.4.6
  3. Compare the installed version against the affected range
    Take the identified version number and compare it to the affected range: any version before 6.4.6 is vulnerable. Ensure you capture the full version string including any patch levels.
    Affected if The installed version is 6.4.5 or earlier, or any pre-6.4.6 release
  4. Confirm network exposure of the Avalanche service
    Since this vulnerability can be triggered by a remote unauthenticated attacker, determine if the Ivanti Avalanche web interface or service ports are accessible from network locations. Check firewall rules, listening ports, and access controls.
    Affected if The Avalanche service is reachable from untrusted networks without authentication

You are affected if Ivanti Avalanche is installed with a version lower than 6.4.6 and the service is network-accessible.
