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
LoxiLB v.0.9.7 and before is vulnerable to Incorrect Access Control which allows attackers to obtain sensitive information and escalate privileges.

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 · low confidence

LoxiLB versions 0.9.7 and before contain an Incorrect Access Control vulnerability that allows unauthenticated or unauthorized attackers to bypass access controls, obtain sensitive information, and escalate privileges to higher-level system access.

MitigationUpgrade to a fixed version of LoxiLB beyond 0.9.7 when available. Review access control configurations and audit user permissions until the patch can be applied.

Verify against the referenced sources before acting — the references below are authoritative for this CVE, this summary is not.

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. Identify LoxiLB version
    Run 'loxilb --version' or check the binary/package version installed on the system
    Affected if The installed version is 0.9.7 or any version lower than 0.9.7
  2. Confirm LoxiLB is running
    Check if the loxilb process or service is active on the system using 'ps aux | grep loxilb' or 'systemctl status loxilb'
    Affected if LoxiLB is running and the version is vulnerable (<= 0.9.7)
  3. Review access control configuration
    Inspect access control lists, authentication settings, or any configuration files that govern who can access LoxiLB services
    Affected if Access controls are present but may be bypassable due to the incorrect access control flaw
  4. Check for unauthenticated endpoints
    Survey exposed network interfaces and ports where LoxiLB is listening to determine if they permit unauthenticated access
    Affected if LoxiLB is accessible over network without authentication and version is <= 0.9.7

The environment is affected if LoxiLB version 0.9.7 or lower is installed and running, particularly if accessible over a network without proper authentication controls.
