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
SunGrow iSolarCloud Android app V2.1.6.20241017 and prior uses an insecure AES key to encrypt client data (insufficient entropy). This may allow attackers to decrypt intercepted communications between the mobile app and iSolarCloud.

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

The SunGrow iSolarCloud Android app versions V2.1.6.20241017 and prior implements AES encryption using a cryptographically weak key with insufficient entropy. This allows an attacker who can intercept network traffic (e.g., via man-in-the-middle attack) to recover the encryption key and decrypt sensitive communications between the mobile app and iSolarCloud backend.

MitigationUpdate the iSolarCloud Android app to a version beyond V2.1.6.20241017 that implements proper AES key generation with sufficient entropy, or replace the hardcoded/weak key with securely generated cryptographic keys.

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. Locate iSolarCloud app on Android device
    Open Android Settings > Apps > iSolarcloud or Sungrowpower Isolarcloud. If not present, the app is not installed.
    Affected if App is installed and version is below 2.1.6.20241104
  2. Check installed app version
    In Settings > Apps > iSolarcloud, view the Version or Version Name field under App Info.
    Affected if Version displayed is V2.1.6.20241017 or earlier, or any version number less than 2.1.6.20241104
  3. Verify app uses network communication
    The iSolarCloud app inherently connects to iSolarCloud backend for monitoring/control. Check in Settings > Apps > iSolarcloud > Mobile Data that network access is enabled.
    Affected if App communicates with iSolarCloud servers and uses the weak AES encryption for that traffic
  4. Confirm version via Play Store if available
    Open Google Play Store, search for iSolarCloud or Sungrowpower Isolarcloud, and view the current version in the app listing.
    Affected if Play Store shows a version prior to 2.1.6.20241104 as the latest installed version

You are affected if the iSolarCloud Android app is installed with version 2.1.6.20241017 or earlier (or version below 2.1.6.20241104) and it communicates with the iSolarCloud backend.

Upgrade available Upgrade to 2.1.6.20241104 or later
Fixed in 2.1.6.20241104
Interim mitigation

Update the iSolarCloud Android app to a version beyond V2.1.6.20241017 that implements proper AES key generation with sufficient entropy, or replace the hardcoded/weak key with securely generated cryptographic keys.

Recommended fix High confidence

2.1.6.20241104 or later

  1. 1. Open the Google Play Store (Android) or Apple App Store (iOS) on your mobile device
  2. 2. Search for "iSolarCloud" or "SunGrow" in the app store
  3. 3. Check the current installed version of the iSolarCloud app in your device settings under Apps > iSolarCloud > Version
  4. 4. If an update is available, tap "Update" to install version 2.1.6.20241104 or later
  5. 5. Alternatively, visit en.sungrowpower.com and navigate to the download section for the iSolarCloud mobile app to obtain the latest version
  6. 6. After updating, verify the app version shows 2.1.6.20241104 or higher under Apps > iSolarCloud > Version
